I used a 5 Pages shop manual on how to replace chain Brake and NOT a single word or drawing about hairpin spring in the handle.!!! Your video saved my day repairing Husky 257 saw. GREAT..
My name is Sergio Duarte. I'm from the south of Brazil. Thank you very much, thank you, thank you very much. Great your video. I didn't know how to put this brake spring. I then looked on the Husqvarna website where I found an exploded view in which mechanical design engineers put this spring outside the brake part. Suddenly I found your video. I am most grateful. Congratulations! A big hug!
Inherited the Husqvarna 51 and was left outside in the weather. The brake was stuck so I took it apart and was about to order a new plate and brake until I found this video. WOW...would never figured it out with the help of this video. PERFECT. Also, the chainsaw fired right up after sitting outside for a long time.
Exactly what i needed, couldn't work out how the spring in the handle went back together, the first few seconds showed me ! thank you very much, was starting to get frustrated. My saw is a 142e similar to yours. Thanks again!!
Never lend a chainsaw to ANYONE - if my friends need some trees felling then I'm happy to do it for them but no-one gets to touch my chainsaw except me... This video was a massive help! Just the right amount of information; clear and concise - thank you SO much!!
You are a star, had a McCulloch Titanium 420, took the chain brake apart as it was not working, and i could not figure out it all went back together again, it's easy when you know how, thanks a million
Nice work... been searching the inner webs for a 272xp chain brake handle replacement... this was the closest thing I’ve found... and it was what I needed. Thanks
This video saved me! Got my Jonsered 2040 Turbo back together with your help, Antti. Thank you for such a clean, clear video of exactly what I needed to know
Thank you very much, was having a hard time putting it all back together when i got the new side piece in, ended up breaking the retaining spring and had to wait another week to get it. now its back together and runs like its supposed to.
im rarely stumped by things like this but that spring handle had me,i couldn't for the life of me figure out how the hell it went in,even on manufacturers diagrams its show in completly the wrong place,your a genius
No speaking needed. It takes me back 50 years when they had the wordless workshop in "The Family Handyman" magazine my dad used to get when I was a kid.
Thank you for your kind words! Maybe they were blind lumberjacks? Anyway all videos have thumbs downs and so what.. We do this to help each other, and that's what matters, right? :)
Iso Kiitos. Meni Husqvarna 40:n haarukkajousi kappaleiksi ja tuli vaihdettua. Purku oli helppo, mutta kasaaminen olikin vähän haasteellisempi homma. Säästit videollasi aikaa ja hermoja.
By chance do you have one of the disassembled brakes locked in the covers off machine and find all kind of the two of the versions but not this one would be appreciated
Add another "also works for" to your list. I had almost given up on my Poulan Pro 260. There was only cosmetic differences between your video and the PP260. Thanks alot.
except the tiny pin you push out of the way at 2:00, this is identical to my Partner 351 saw, and damn that spring was hard to pull out of its brake position
Your video was perfect for my chain brake issue. I have a Jonsered 625 which is identical to the Husqvarna in the video. My issue is when you unlocked the chain brake at the end of the video it was done off camera. how did you put it in the unlock position while the assembly was off the saw? Thanks
Wow thank you man! Great Video. I had removed it to clear a bunch of gunk that was messing with the saw and realized that as usual i forgot to note how the spring was positioned in the handle. Any how I am an idiot and you helped me be less of an idiot now :D
I assembled it with the spring loaded, and it seemed stuck. Maybe just needed lot of force, like in your video. You can use a plastic quick-grip clamp to load the spring easily, and safely... Why such a heavy clutch for a tiny saw? This is prone to failure.
@@AnttiHarri Look at the casing from the top when it's assembled, where the long spring is. That overengeenered spring is trying to tear it apart. It might be why the Australian ebay is full of 2 prong springs for the front of it. I found the 1998 45 at the tip, with a locked brake. It's a great saw, and that air injector is a great idea, but that spring is no good. What would you do? 1. shorten the spring by cutting it 2. weaken the spring by heating it 3. buy a new, different spring from the People's Republic of China 4. find out what kind of spring keeps the public telephone receiver up 5. buy an Australian "spring roll" and put that in instead of eating it, only that's even tougher and more rubbery there is no wrong answer
great vid our issue is the handle works great until u put the spring in. then its impossible to get the brake to reset....spring seems extremely strong for application. any advice.....thanks.
Dooguy... Not totally sure what you mean but here are some thoughts. I assume you mean the straigth spring that goes in after the handle is secured with the pin? If the handle is springy double check the assembly. The large spring is very powerful as you can see I had use both hands and get a good grip to get it pulled back. Releasing should be effortless, just a little tap forward should suffice. Once you assemble the whole brake into your saw its much easier to operate.
Dooguy... Oh right it won't go back into the saw because it needs to be reset by hand for the first time. I haven't driven my saw over with my car recently so I didn't remember that. :) Great that it worked out!
At about 1:00? The nut is held by tight fit/friction. Try using your thumb or pressing the nut with pliers. Maybe use a dremel to make a notch and use a flat head screw driver on the nut and Allen key on the opposite side.
@@AnttiHarri no worries, I think I was thrown with how hard it is to pull back when not attached to the body. Presumed I’d done something wrong and kept pulling it apart. Probably wasn’t broken in the first place 🙈
Perfect. Needs no words!

Agreed, this is 1 of many reasons husqvarnas are trash

Had trouble locating the handle spring. This man is fantastic, great video very comprehensive ten out of ten. Many thanks

WOW...would never figured it out with the help of this video. PERFECT. Also, the chainsaw fired right up after sitting outside for a long time.
Thanks! This is the first video I have seen covering the assembly of this particular style. It is the same design as an older model 272xp.
Just what I needed. I'm a reasonably handy kind of guy, but this spring had me stumped. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Most important video on UA-cam. Works for model 141 also.
Excellent! No one else addresses the spring in the handle. Thank you!
This has helped me to put spring back inside the handle on Hasquarna 41. All the other videos online tell you not to take the handle apart :).
You are a star, had a McCulloch Titanium 420, took the chain brake apart as it was not working, and i could not figure out it all went back together again, it's easy when you know how, thanks a million
From Argentina, Men !!! you are a GENIUS, the best !!! Thanks, God belsses you. And withouth words !!!
OMG I have been looking for this information. Dealers were unable or unwilling to help. Thank you so much!
You're welcome! :) Here the dealers said it usually doesn't need any parts replaced so I started looking into putting it back together.
Nice work... been searching the inner webs for a 272xp chain brake handle replacement... this was the closest thing I’ve found... and it was what I needed. Thanks
that was just what I needed, had it apart so long forgot how to get it back together, thanks for taking the time to help a fellow out.
Exactly the information that I needed! Thank you kind sir!
This video saved me! Got my Jonsered 2040 Turbo back together with your help, Antti. Thank you for such a clean, clear video of exactly what I needed to know
This is great! I've been struggling with the brake for over two weeks now :D
Same brake assembly on the Husky 288XP, and is exactly what I needed to properly assemble the inner spring with the two fingers. Thanks!
Thank you for sharing showing how the handle spring is fitted
Thank you very much, was having a hard time putting it all back together when i got the new side piece in, ended up breaking the retaining spring and had to wait another week to get it. now its back together and runs like its supposed to.

Nice one! I was trying to work out the spring location. Thank you for uploading this.
Спасибо Мужик! Полтора часа пружину в ручку вставлял, пока видео не посмотрел. От души!
MAN, You are a Godsend!! Exactly what I needed to see! Thanks
Thank you, came in very handy! My model 51 Husqvarna is good as new. Thank you for showing/sharing your knowledge.
Дуже дякую, за гарне, швидке та зрозуміле відео .
Thanks, I was stuck trying to get the chain brake back together on my
Husqvarna 61.
most all Husqvarna's, and Jonsereds have this brake band set-up. Great video. I like the crack at the end.....
No speaking needed. It takes me back 50 years when they had the wordless workshop in "The Family Handyman" magazine my dad used to get when I was a kid.
Спасибо, добрый человек. ... из России с любовью....)))
You went off camera to do the most important task, release the chain break.
Thank you so much, my Poulan chainsaw uses exactly the same kind of chain brake. I couldn't figure out where that weird spring went!
You're welcome :)
This is why i love this fkn app...
perfect Thanks bro You saved my husqvarna 257
Thanks I added 257 to the description.
@@AnttiHarri 14psi Good compresion 372xp oem?
...also can't understand why anyone would give this video a thumbs down unless they're shills for a repair shop.
Thank you for your kind words! Maybe they were blind lumberjacks? Anyway all videos have thumbs downs and so what.. We do this to help each other, and that's what matters, right? :)
Shills definetely
Gonna try it on husky 61 stamped brazil as origin
Thanks so much that is a perfect video. So many videos on chain brake but but not many with that pesky Handle spring!!!

Super dzięki temu filmowi naprawiłem hamulec w swojej pile.
Thanks bro! I didnt know this break is so bloddy hard, I was afraid I would break it.
Great!! exactly what I needed. Staright to the point. Thanks.
Thanks! Very informative, especially the handle spring position!
F***ing thank you!!!! Perfect video. Saved me a lot of headache
Same thing. Lost 2 hours before this video.
Buenísimo y conque facilidad ha puesto el muelle. Enhorabuena. Estos vídeos si nos facilitan los trabajos. Un saludo
Antti ❤❤❤❤ your video saved me from going insane !😊
Thank you! Just what I need for my 272XP.
works for husqvarna 42 also
You saved my chainsaw. Have a nice day - every day
Thanks for this video. I couldn't figure out the spring on my Jonsered 2050 which is identical to your Husky.
Perfect Video. Thank you!
Спасибо,очень помогло ваше видео,пружина выскочела,не понял как ставится 👍
You are a Saint!
thank you for posting, much appreciated.
Thank You so much! This was really helpful!
By chance do you have one of the disassembled brakes locked in the covers off machine and find all kind of the two of the versions but not this one would be appreciated
Can u show is how to disengage the brake so we put a new clutch drum in.
Thank you. Saved my chainsaw bacon.

It's stiff when not attached to saw. You need force.
@@AnttiHarri all set thanks
Esse pino passa dentro dessa volta q a mola tem ?
Many thanks for helpful video.
This is the 2nd time I've used this vid! 😆💦 It's just excellent!!
Truly awesome thanks so much for this happened me out loads . 👍
Wow thank you man! Great Video. I had removed it to clear a bunch of gunk that was messing with the saw and realized that as usual i forgot to note how the spring was positioned in the handle. Any how I am an idiot and you helped me be less of an idiot now :D
Yep it's really counter intuitive how it goes there. I originally made this for myself, because I got tired of spending a day to figuring it out.
I assembled it with the spring loaded, and it seemed stuck. Maybe just needed lot of force, like in your video.
You can use a plastic quick-grip clamp to load the spring easily, and safely...
Why such a heavy clutch for a tiny saw? This is prone to failure.
It's only heavy to use if it's not attached to the saw. You get better lever and better grab once it's attached back.

Oh the time you just saved me
My man you saved my marriage, borrowed my f-in-laws chain saw, he would have been pissed even if I bought him a new one.
I'm laughing so hard right now :D
Did you run over it with a truck or something?
Спасибо. Понятно и подробно.

Cm faço pra trocar a mola grampo do freio do motosserra husqvarna e cm desmonta o freio todo
sure wish I knew how to reset this break
Great vid. thankyou very much.
Just wondering about the Allen screw that holds the handle. How did it come off? Mine just keeps turning. I can’t grip the nut.
At about 1:00? The nut is held by tight fit/friction. Try using your thumb or pressing the nut with pliers. Maybe use a dremel to make a notch and use a flat head screw driver on the nut and Allen key on the opposite side.
Antti Harri thanks for that. Cool video.
Спасибо от души немог собрать
Having hard time getting the main bolt out the first one replaced in this video
Just watched this 128 times before getting it right. 🙈
Thanks for the views ;)
@@AnttiHarri no worries, I think I was thrown with how hard it is to pull back when not attached to the body. Presumed I’d done something wrong and kept pulling it apart. Probably wasn’t broken in the first place 🙈
