McCulloch PM 605 | Chain Brake Install Updated

[frankpaya]

That was a nightmare to get back on. I'll never make that mistake again!
There's no reason in the world to take that off, unless you were replacing the brake.
I'm surprised they're even was a video about this. Thank you for posting it and for all your hard work producing it.

Thanks a million! I searched for an hour trying to find a video or diagram. Awesome job!

Brother... I pulled this off of my Timber Bear to clean it up and I'll not do that again lol. Thank you for this video, I learned I was on the right path but it's just much more of a pain than I thought.

Dude I am so glad you made this video. I got a PM610 for free and the brake was seized or otherwise very stuck in the on position, got it apart and the whole thing flew apart and I had no idea how to get it back together.

Oh Maan! Thanks for this video, I have a 610 and it has the same chain brake system but I couldn't figure out how to put this together!! I've been looking for someone to show me how and where to put that spring and finally (I hope) I found your video!! I'll try to do it tomorrow!! Thanks again!!!

much more useful than the other video Watched both tonight first one left me in the dark in some ways and this vid filled in the gaps

I still have one of these I have not fixed. I never could get that to catch. Just bought a replacement. Maybe I’ll work on it some now that I have seen this video. Thank you so much. It was only one video out here one this before .

Thanks for the video I have a Timberbear with a broken handle that I have to replace and you video is really going to help me out! Thanks again for the help!

I put a PM700 chain brake together the other day, same setup and it wasn't too difficult. I did a 610 one a while back but I can't remember how hard it was.
If the spring comes out of the notch I recommend taking the flag off and trying again from the start rather than trying to fight the spring with a screwdriver.

I've got three 610s I'm going to combine and make two. One runs good, but is pretty rough. All I have left to do now is put the oil tank off of the burned up wards saw, and the fuel tank off off the parts saw with a good engine, then I'm putting the good engine in the wards saw.

Them Ol boys had it good back in the day before hand brakes🤣

[jamesfarley]

the brake i repaired years ago would jump out w use due to coil spring moving up. seems to need a spacer to keep coil spring down tight into dog latch.worked ok then. i filed a v notch in an old screwdriver to allow me to push spring end back and down, still difficult but better.

I used a really big flat blade screwdriver for that job, worked nice ! do you have any idea where I could get a recoil/pull cord assembly for the timberbear ? thx !

[billymonk]

The spring falls down after putting in place. It won’t stay centered. Do you think the spring arm that engages the handle is bent. It was working good and the screw that holds the handle on came loose.

This does not look possible without the bar and chain removed correct ??

My mac 10-10 has no brake. I want one. Kind of never thought of it till doing too real cuttin with it
