I got cocky about never having trouble getting one off. Now I ran into a new 667 Solo I can't get off. They must have really impacted that thing on there at the factory. (the third Reichs revenge)
The whole thing turns off like a regular clutch all in one piece no need to disassemble it, the two holes near the center act as the leverage point. A tool with two points fits in the holes, fairly easy to make something to work if the tool is not available. A punch and hammer has been used to remove many clutches like this one.Perfect a Thread about this here 031av saw .
Now im used to removing clutches on newer Stihl's old Husqvarnas Jonsereds etc but what the heck is this ?
And how do i get this contraction of the saw ? Its some kind of sprint should i just cut of or what ?
I think i have some never clutches laying around that i can use instead .
Any of the Tinkerers have some thought ? I found a tubeclip but it didnt show the removal of this lock?
Would really need a word of advice here .

If you are going to try the punch and hammer method do not hammer against the outer cover,the moveable part, you must hammer against the inner solid clutch core. The two pin type tool is best and I made mine from a length of 1/4' flat stock, drilled two holes to accept 5/16 bolt, threaded them and turned in two bolts that protrude about 3/4" out from the flat bar. Block the piston and apply force clockwise but the punch will work if done carefully.Hello Pioneerguy
So i dont have to remove those horseshoe things before ? Just whack away as usual as on any clutch ?
i think ive seen those tools with the two pegs somewhere where i cant remember but still .
Thanks for the Input

Find 2 pin punches the holes. Bloch the piston with a stop of some sort (rope?). Take a long tool (screwdriver, punch, etc.) And turn clockwise (LH thread). Please don't go beating on it. Most likely won't work and parts are NLA. You can replace it with a regular clutch off and 031 or 042.
The spanner is definitely the way to go. Just listing alternatives.That'll do it, too. Did this a few times on my Remingtons with fairbanks morse clutches. I acquired the pin spanner quite recently.
