Hi AVB, I don't have any emails coming in, the same as you, as I prefer to Log in to this amazing Forum. Thanks for your support, and for reading my last message, I know exactly what you are talking about, as sometimes things become a little clearer after a person walks away and has a break, but this hasn't happened in this situation, at this stage, but there has to be an answer. I've been typing an updated explanation that hopefully will help Forum Members in what I'm trying to convey. I appreciated your support, and I smiled when I read it, as I knew exactly what you are talking about. Kind regards, Sherrie

Hi NormK, Yep... in the photo most of the components are correctly in place, but the Spring is not in place, and I can�t get that spring sitting where it should sit. There are three (3) situations relating to this issue. Firstly (1) The Spring has to sit within the plastic mould (as per photo), the other end of that spring has to slot into the metal pronged component. This same component has a hole that has to drop/be placed over the metal post (colour Aqua in photo), the metal post is sitting upright in the plastic moulding of the Chainsaw. Second: (2) That same metal component at the other end has to slot into another strip like, flat piece of metal which twists around another component to create a spring recoil effect). Thirdly (3) the metal strip that leads to the Handle, has a hole in it and this has to be slotted into the the other metal post (also coloured Aqua in photo) that is also sitting upright in the plastic moulding of the Chainsaw. At this stage, everything has such tension, that it�s impossible for me to have all these components installed to enable the Brake Handle to work correctly as mentioned. The photos I�ve taken, and this explanation may help further. I�ve tried my best to try to explain the situation and the photos, hopefully will help. The Yellow dots/lines on the photos are where the spring should be placed. Again, NormK, Mowerfreak and AVB, your support and replies would be appreciated. Kind regards, Sherrie

I wish to thank all that have helped me with the situation regarding the Oil Tube issue, but now I�ve encountered another problem. I�ll now created a new forum question regarding this issue that relates to the Internal Hand Brake assembly. Oh..... If you can give give me some advise on the latest event, that would be wonderful.

I have sincerely, appreciated your time and your knowledge. I�m, obviously not involved in anything like this field, but I�m the same, as you wonderful people, I do pass on, any information that will help other people. We are all working together to ensure someone has knowledge that will help them in the future� and I thank you. Kindest regards, Sherrie
