If the springs are broken, the clutch pads won`t retract, preventing the chain from stopping. If the clutch pads are sticking, the clutch drum will stay engaged and continue to turn. If the springs are broken or the clutch pads are sticking, replace the clutch assembly.

ANSWER : Grab the hand guard and pull it fully back to the main top handle, it may take a reasonable amount of force as it is compressing a fairly large spring inside the brake.

Husky 435 chain brake is stuck in “locked” position with clutch cover off. How do I release the brake, so the cover will fit over the flywheel?
ANSWER : Hi, grab the cover in a vise in the same place the bar nuts tighten up to. Then pull the chainbrake lever back towards where the handle bar would normally be until it clicks and locks back. This will require a bit of force. Then refit the cover as normal. Hope this helps, regards Phil.

Won’t start. on/off switch stuck, choke won’t engage.
ANSWER : Take off the on/off switch, locate spring underneath and find where it’s hitting. Shave the plastic part where it’s sticking (I just used a flat head screwdriver) & it’ll work just fine. Just started mine up and it runs like a champ. Very cheap (free) & easy fix.

ANSWER : I think the chain brake is tripped… Try pulling the part just ahead of the front handle aft as far as possible. It should click (don’t panic) as it locks into place. Does the chain rotate now? HTH

The saw break is stuck and won’t move and the saw won’t start.
ANSWER : If the chainbrake has activated you need to de activate it, pull the hand guard fully back to the top handle, you should hear a clip as the brake locks, if the machine when last used was run with the brake on it has probably over heated the clutch spring and the shoes are now draging on the drum making it near impossible to start, once the brake is of remove the side cover and check the clutch and spring, if you can pull the shoes out by hand the clutch and or spring need to be replaced.
