Description
This 38cc chainsaw clutch is a new Winzor aftermarket replacement for compatible generic Chinese 3800-series chainsaws. It uses the three-shoe centrifugal design shown in the product photographs and transfers engine power to the clutch drum as engine speed increases.
At idle, the clutch shoes retract and disengage from the drum. Therefore, the engine can continue running while the saw chain remains stationary.
38cc Chainsaw Clutch Compatibility
Designed for compatible Chinese chainsaws sold under these common model descriptions:
- Generic 3800 chainsaw
- 38cc Chinese chainsaw
- CS38
- PN38 and PN3800
- YD38 and YD3800
- Other two-stroke petrol chainsaws using the same three-shoe clutch design
Different importers sell these chainsaws under various brand names. Consequently, the model name or stated engine capacity does not confirm fitment by itself. Compare the original clutch with the product photographs and measurements before ordering.
Product Details
- Product type: centrifugal clutch assembly
- Design: three clutch shoes
- Brand: Winzor
- Application: generic Chinese chainsaw
- Common model designation: 3800
- Engine type: two-stroke petrol
- Condition: new aftermarket replacement
- Package contents: one clutch assembly
As engine speed increases, centrifugal force moves the three clutch shoes outwards. The shoes contact the inside of the clutch drum and transfer rotation to the drive sprocket and saw chain.
A worn or damaged clutch can cause chain-drive slipping, weak acceleration, irregular engagement or unwanted chain movement at idle. Replacing the damaged assembly restores proper engagement between the engine and clutch drum.
Check the Original Clutch
Before ordering, compare these details with the clutch removed from your chainsaw:
- Three-shoe layout and spring positions
- Overall diameter and thickness
- Centre mounting thread
- Shape of the shoe weights
- Clearance inside the existing clutch drum
This listing contains one clutch assembly. The clutch drum, drive sprocket and needle bearing are not included.
Before installation, disconnect the spark plug and secure the piston with the correct servicing tool. Additionally, inspect the clutch drum and bearing for grooves, excessive movement or heat damage.
