2018. fairly Low hour first gen. Husqvarna 135
Im suprised to see a CRANKSHAFT made of sintered metal.. part that must endure most stress and abuse.
I mean, these are low-end saws, but this is just...wow.
Soft steel shaft simply pressed through and press squashed.
Who would have thought it might come loose
So me being me, ill try to save it.
Has anyone done anything similar?
Ill completely take it apart, grind off the squashed part, make it snug fit and TIG weld it in.
