Husqvarna clutch cover swap

[Ashes_Firewood]

Does anyone know if the clutch cover from a Husqvarna 435 would fit a 440e? I don't like the tool less chain tensioning system on the 440e.

 

440e

 

435

 

They look pretty much the same saws apart from the clutch cover?

 

Thanks

You may need to change some other parts as well - consult the part lists (they are on some Husky web-sites, at least the US and the Swedish ones at the moment, likely on more of them).

Yes it will go straight on pt no, 501388201 you will just need a bar nut then

You'll presumably need the conventional adjuster screw etc as well...?

comes as part of the cover kit.

When it's done will it be exactly the same as a 435 ? If so how did they ever sell any 440 Es ?

No, the 440 has .325 bar and chain not 3/8 low profile, and the cylinder is ported differently so 435 1.6 KW 440 1.8 KW.

According to the website the 435 runs .325 chain as well so the adjuster and porting are the only differences.
