how do I release the brake will not come back McCulloch MCC3516F

All the times mine got triggered while not running it released easily. The one time the brake on mine wouldn't release was when it got accidentally triggered while running cutting a log. It just would not release no matter how hard I pulled back. I loosened the tension on the chain completely and then it released. Good luck and let us know what worked for you.

I have not used my saw since hurricane Sandy, but as I recall, I just pulled back hard on the bar to release the brake.

Good grief. That sucks. I suppose it depends on which bit broke. I assume it's the reverse thread end. Maybe it snapped deep enough that another try will grip enough to pull the whole thing out. Most auto part stores will loan them. If not I'm afraid it's a head pull.

You would have to contact the mfr. How did you break the metal handle? I have used mine dozens of times and nothing has even come close to breaking.

Actually I just disconnected it. But I found out later the wheel bearing assembly was bad and it was getting a false reading. My brakes would go right to the floor and I couldn't stop. When I disconnected it they worked fine.

had the same problem - if with the lock/unlock switch on the front is in the unlock position and it still does not unlock when you hit the foot pedal check the spring inside. mine was unhooked.

When I received it, my parking brake allowed the wheels to turn. There is a silver turnbuckle or nut at the end of the cable next to the handbrake. Turn it to tighten it just enough so that the wheels don't move when the parking brake is set, but you can squeeze the handle a little to release the parking brake.

You hold the blue button down, do not let up, continue holding down and unscrew collet nut from the unit. After removing it, place it back on unit but do not tighten, leave very loose. Put tool with sander into silver thing still in unit as far as will go. Next tighten black collet nut and you should be ready to roll. Hope this helps someone!

Make sure you are using the lever to make it retract. Mine stopped retracting and I had to send it back. The send it back it me in two weeks and it's working now.

My brakes DO NOT hold when the button is pressed to hold. What can I do ot make the brakes hold?

That happened to mine when it was shipped so I called 800-4DREMEL, somebody there walked me through the process. It's sort of hard for me to explain but I'll try. Take off the collet nut, if you see a silver colored shaft still sticking out of the nut pull it out if you can, if you can't pull it out then push it out using something hard like a pen or the little screw driver/wrench thing that came with it. Then put the collet back into the dremel unit followed by the collet nut, then the shaft that has the drum disk goes in and tighten it down. Hopefully that helps somebody. If all else fails call the nice people at the company. I was very pleased with their customer service and my dog is pleased that I don't use the guillotine clippers on her anymore.

There is an attached 1/4" x 3" (?) pin that can be inserted into the base of the clamp to lock it in place once it's seated on the tow ball. If you look at the picture of the actuator, you can see the pin with it's cotter ring. That same pin can be used when backing up to prevent the actuator from moving backward to engage the brakes. You can see hole for that a few inches behind the pin & cotter in the picture.

There's a flat lever on the top, opposite the bit which you must pull back with some force to disengage the special bolt which holds each attachment to the Multimaster. Then once you've fitted the device with an attachment (or "Bit" as you call it), you simply lock that lever back down again .

I believe this is a spring lock. Push it in again and it will unlock and you can pull out

Take out the metal part and pull. It was tight for me initially but easier now. If it's not coming out pull harder!

I have not run into that problem, but have not used it very much on hills. It has been a while since I used mine, but if I remember correctly, there is a pin on the brake handle that you either push in or pull out to keep the brake in place. I will look into this over the weekend and get back to you if you are still having an issue.

The valve on the drop pedal is not closing, thus the lift pedal will not lift. I would remove the jack from the lift and check out the drop side of the jack.... or you may have air in the system....you should be able to get it repaired or get good advice at any business that deals in hydraulic brakes etc...
