if so part number 1124 021 1100 ring your local dealer for a price.i wouldnt think it would be too dear,

Not too sure, haven't received the saw yet, have just purchased it. It still all runs and cuts.

When he took the E-clip off the chain break system the clutch fell out without him having to unscrew it a lot of melted plastic inside.

So something seized and melted.

bearing or maybe the clutch got overheated ???job to say without looking at the saw.

is this a common problem with this saw? i've just bought one from john p, could that encounter the same dilemma? what would be the cause?

[Rich2484]

Could be the pictures but looks like a complete needle bearing failure.

 

The crank seals are replaceable, quite straight forward. Looks like needle bearing failure has also caused the clutch to undo and rattle around.

 

Clean it up, re assemble and check it's all working, do it in stages checking each part carefully on re build.

Would seem ive heard that the bearing needs greasing.
