Should have read a bit more. You can have a bad locking cam for the brake leaver or there is wear on the stop. Your brake band could be messed up too. Slightly bent somewhere. Talk to Bob and he may just build up and send you a whole new cover assembly. He had all of the brake parts I needed for my 600 saws and he should have everything you need. The stuff I told you about your clutch should still be done as a safety item and wear and tear. You could also have a slightly bent or bowed clutch itself and it is catching. Another thing, are you using a full tank of chain oil per tank of fuel? Your chain could be binding. It should be one to one fuel use to oil use. I would recommend you switch to straight 30wt ND motor oil. The pumps on these saws are vacuum pumps and bar oil is too thick for them. In really cold weather like around freezing I use ATF fluid. One last, when you take the chain off clean the bar. Use a very small thin screw driver and clean out the groove. Bet tons of stuff will come out.
