Chainsaw Chain Won't Turn - Easy Fix! (Husqvarna 550xp Mark II)

Today I’m troubleshooting and fixing my Husqvarna 550xp Mark II(2). The chainsaw chain won't turn. It seized up on me when I was out in the field bucking up firewood (as seen in the last episode:    • Husqvarna 550xp Mark 2 - Putting it to the...   ). I had been using it all day long...which is unlike me. If you have been following my firewood adventures, you know that I always carry multiple chainsaws with me so that I can spread out the wear and tear on them and have a backup in case something goes wrong with one. But I was just having SO MUCH FUN running this saw that I never grabbed for another. I mean, it runs great! After a day full of cutting, it seized up and the chain wouldn't spin. The engine was fine, but instead of spending the time trying to troubleshoot it in the field, I decided to wait until I could get it back to the shop and troubleshoot it then. So, here I am, back at the shop, taking this thing apart so I can get it up and running again. It ended up being an easy fix. My chainsaw bar sprocket seized up, so I had to give it a good cleaning and greasing to get it moving freely again. I also discovered that my chain brake was stuck, so I had to unlock the brake as well.
