dear sir,try the homelite.com site for the detail,and then try canadian/american ebay and google.the parts are available here,its just not a popular brand and is now ryobi-whose site is cr*p. Try ebay uk too with a search for the homelite name and add spares or repair and pick it up locally.it may well cost as much for post from US-but try any way.-ps one of the worst fears of the US is returns,so to persuade them,you must be cast iron sure anout the parts. martin-owner of a now going well homelite thanks to homelite site.
