Mend Craftsman Start Pull Top

My craftsman Chainsaw won't start?

I can not pull start my chainsaw. The pull chain will not come out. I can not turn the crank manually at all. When the piston gets near the top of the cylinder it will not turn any more. Any thoughts?

Hate to say this, but it sounds like it is seized. Have you been putting 2 stroke oil into your petrol in the right amounts? If your not a home mechanic then I would take this to a dealer!
