560xp side casing

[butters]

Hi guys I recently got a 560xp and what a lovely saw to use but I decided to give her a service and I think i forgot to take of the brake and well now the case won't go back on, anyways of getting it back on ? Or shall I take it to my dealer ?

You can do it a few ways, 1. Press the chainbreak activator thing into its space on the handle and try to turn it like that, or 2. Make a tool like gardenkit did on the what's on my bench thread

Or whip the clutch drum off, shove the cover on, flick off the brake and then refit the drum.

I did the exact same the other day. Used to the inboard clutch on my stihl live and you learn

Must have given you a fight to get it off, nice lesson learned and something new to get used to

I haven't done that in years, but I remember just prying it back open with the scrench.

Now I need to go look at my 346 next time I have the cover off.
