HI,
Well, my triangle pin clutch tool I bout from the guy up in Washington State ($26, Aluminum body) finally busted. A recently made a new friend who happens to work in a machine shop and he said he would make me a good set of hardened steel clutch tools if I gave him a spec/design document (i.e., measurements). I said "absolutely"!
This past weekend I measured the aftermarket tool I had and thought.... what the heck.... why not ask the members of HOH for Homelite original (i.e., OEM not third party/aftermarket) dimensions for this tool(s) given the aftermarket tool I had was fairly loose (too much slop in my opinion). Better to get original specs/measurements than a copy of a copy.
The two tools I am looking for dimensions (Please use a Caliper, no eyeball/ruler measurements... ha! e.g., 1.727") for as follows:
Three pin Clutch tool # 23934 (e.g., SXL-AO saw)
Three pin Clutch Tool # 24060 (330 saw?) I know the overall distance with respect to the pins is shorter on this version/part#.
I figure I may as well get both made at the same time because who knows if I will ever be offered this opportunity again... ha!
Please provide the following two dimensions as I can calculate the rest (e.g., center hole position for the shaft and corresponding Hex nut location). The two requested dimensions are:
1) Outside to outside (not center-to-center) for two of the three pins as it is an equilateral triangle.
2) Diameter of one of the three pins.
Thanks in advance,
Charlie
