hi all, I see a few people are in need of this question been resolved so heres the answer.
1st, of all you need to take off the gear box plate using a torx 27 tool to remove the 6 torx bolts.
2nd, you will need to remove the internal spur gear and connecting rods possible the full blade.
3rd, remove the external circlip that holds the drive pinion gear in place.
4th, you will need to remove the air filter cover
5th, next is the 3 torx bolts holding the gearbox casing to the engine 1 is at the back wich can be accessed through the ring that covers the rear anti vibration springs. the other 2 are either side of the casing sunk down a little bit. hopefully these can be easily located.
6th, next is the pull start housing/ top casing.
7th, at this point you should be able to carefully lift the engine out of the lower casing and get access to the clutch drum.
8th from the gear box side carefully tap the drive gear out of the bearing.
9th, give the gear box a good clean out to remove any old oil and any metal filings that may be hanging around.
finally re fitting is pretty much the reversal of this step by step although 1 thing to take into consideration is when putting the new clutch drum in be sure to have something softer than the clutch drum to tap it back into place using the centre of the clutch drum to avoid any possible damage on refiiting.
1 final thing, good luck. and don't forget to refill with grease
I assume you mean the top handle. You need to take out the anti-vibration mounts which are behind the 3 round black blank off plates. There are 2 small screwdriver slots in each to allow you o prize the covers off. Behind the covers you will find a normal torx size 27 screw which you undo (same on each mounting). The anti-vibe springs are likely to come off in the process but make sure you know which goes where as there are 2 different sizes! The handle should then - with a bit of fiddling come out of the saw.
Clean it again you missed something or maybe a gasket is on wrong. If you went through all of that it should run fine. Stihl usually rebuilds and runs well. Slow down turbo maybe you got a little ahead of yourself. Good Luck...
