Clutch Assembly, Small

Hello Erik, thank you for your question. There is a clutch drum screw holding the clutch drum onto the motor. This is the only tricky part involved in removing the clutch. To remove the clutch, a screw must be removed from the hole in the clutch drum that connects the drum to the motor. To remove the clutch drum screw, the trimmer's piston must be bound first. Otherwise, turning the drum screw will only rotate the piston, and the screw will not come out. To bind up the piston, you may have to remove the spark plug to access the piston. Stuff a short piece of nylon rope into the cylinder, leaving some hanging out so it can be easily removed. Slowly pull the starter cord to bring the piston up. When you feel resistance in the starter cord, you'll know the piston is bound enough to remove the clutch drum screw. Clutch drum screws are regular thread, and turn counterclockwise to loosen. I hope this information helps!

Hello Bob, Thank you for the question. Here is a repair store I located from a previous customer. Removed the spark plug, then inserted a length of rope into the cylinder with a few inches remaining outside of the cylinder. This is to stop the engine from rotating when removing the drum and clutch. Then remove the clutch cover. Insert a torx driver into the clutch drum and remove it. The use a screwdriver and hammer to hit the edge of the clutch to loosen it from the shaft. Hope this helps!

Good Day Jay. Thank you for your question in regards to your unit (TB22EC). Based on our research, it appears you will need an Allan Head Screw Driver. We hope this helps. Best Regards.

Hello Greg, Thank you for the question. The springs are only sold as part of the Clutch, PartSelect Number PS9303676. Hope this helps!
