A while back, I was cutting up some wood, and I'm not used to a manually oiled chainsaw, so I forgot to push the handle to oil the bar... it completely locked up. Motor still ran, but it would NOT lock up the clutch to pull the chain around until I oiled it up a couple times.

Needles to say, it scared the sh!t out of me, because it's not my saw... I was borrowing it from a friend, who's had it for literally about 15 years.
