Hey Steve , I like that idea even better but my 4218/4018 muffler cover wont set down low enough for the short threaded stud . Did you modify the cover ?
How'd you make out with the saw, pull out any hair?

Time to rant as well. Got a 028Super. Think I can get the clutch off? Heck no! Rope in cylinder and resorted to my impact wrench. 110 lbs on my compressor and tons on liquid wrench.Still won't budge. Next step is to heat it up and hope I don't melt anything under it.Yes, I am going clockwiseHusqvarna split boom brush cutters have gotten bad. Got a replacement for my first one's coil died, this on, I fueled up, installed the pole saw to trim back some tree limbs. If it had electric start, I would have killed the battery trying to start it. Once started I couldn't let it idle or it would die and I would pull forever trying to start it. Once running I had to keep on the throttle. Got my tool out to check the carb settings, 1 1/2 turns out on both hi and low. Took me thirty minutes trying to get the carb set. The minute I raise it up to cut it would stall out. Ran great level, going back for another swap out. I reset the carb the way it came and counted almost 2 turns out on hi and low. Something ain't right. Done ranting, thank you.

Thx, turned out good. Thinkin it’ll need a good size bar thrown on itNice saw Cookie and nice job getting it cleaned up.
I'd look at a Poulan S25DA or CVA. Small top handle saw with plenty of grunt.Maybe a 2800, but it ain't small sized, just cc.

Got it off. Plenty of heat and smoke from the PB Blaster. Never ran into a clutch that was so persistent.If the issue is Loctite, 300 deg F on the end of the crank should do it.
