  16. 138 views and not much response im surprised by that, but it is very strange that it keeps happening.
  17. this is the part of the chainbrake that keeps breaking. Im not a heavy handed user of chainsaws either.
  18. Ive been having major problems with my 441 chainbrake, the small plastic nipple that sits behind the main spring at the end of the handle keeps wearing quickly and causes the chainbrake to stay on permanantly and render the new chainbrake useless. Ive replaced the handle 3x and have been having the same problem each time, ive been triple checking that im replacing the handle as the stihl parts guide manual explains to do i.e copying the pictures as they show how the chainbrake comes apart. Now the problem has started to occur with my new 066, the saw has been used for less than 6 hours.My first thoughts with the 441 was that i was maybe wacking the chainbrake on too often when the saw was at full revs which would explain why the component is wearing and the chainbrake is shitting itself, so ive been super cautious with the new 066 and my last 441 chainbrake as to make sure the chainbrake is engaged only when the saw has completely run down, but the problem is persistent whuch is starting to piss on ones bonfire. Im going to be sending the 066 back to Mr Jones to see what his boys can come up with.I was just wondering if anyone has come across the same problem. Apologises for the long winded explanation but the annoying thing is the troubleshoot method should have been so simple. Not a happy STIHL user :thumbdown:
  19. cheers kev, i found it for 590 with free delivery and 1 year warranty, thats the titan not lawnflite, they look pretty similar and spec is like for like
