How to Fix a Stuck Chainsaw Brake

Step by Step!

Today we'll be looking at a chainsaw that has a stuck chain brake.

The reason they usually get seized up is because the spring track gets filled with sawdust.

It's usually a quick fix, and you can complete this using basic tools!

I'll 1st explain the fundamentals of how the brake system works, and then show you how it gets seized in the 1st place.

We'll then clean and lubricate it, so it doesn't seize again.

Once chain brake has been cleaned and the spring track has been lubricated, I'll show you how to reset the chain brake spring. We'll then reinstall it onto the chainsaw.

I'll then show you how to properly adjust the tension of the chain, so we can start up the chainsaw and engage and disengage the chain brake!

Simply follow the steps in this video, and your chainsaw will be back up and running in no time!
