Its just a stencil. Looks to be the same white as the 66
That theory might explain why its on there.
So id be assuming that having the plastic brake arm its older than the 300th, so would it be mid-late 80's?
I might see if it goes first, run it a bit, then check for leaks at the crank seals.
Is that a check via symptoms, oily leaking and revving to the moon. That last bit might be hard to check.
Whats the best way to check the seals?
I suppose i should ring my mate and pump him for some info on it. He did say when he dropped it off that he had the books etc for it. So i would assume he got it new. If he did i would say its done stuff all work.
The rakers had never seen a file.
I was thinking last night that i should ring him and force feed him a chainsaw sharpening lesson.
But i didnt have my phone in my pocket.
By the time i got back inside i thought better of it, he can talk wallpaper off a wall, keeps trying to electrically educate me. I know the secret, wires are full of smoke, keep the smoke in and its all good. Dont need to know about chips and resistors and the like.
How do the big harvesters do in your real hard wood? Or are they even used?
I am also kinda surprised your nation doesn't have their own national domestically produced chainsaw, designed around your hardwoods.
As in feller bunchers and big machines like that???
They use the same as everyeone else i suppose.
But then ive only ever seen the gear for the small stuff, radiata pine and blue gum, both soft ish green cut timber.
Domestically produced what???
We got the free trade here.
You would think we would have all sorts of stuff going on here but we got squat.
A lot of good ideas come out of this country, thats it, just ideas, no products, well very few.
Not that Im all for Government subsidised products on the world market, i suppose the same way im against a dumping ground for rubbish quality consumer products. Which is what we are.
You would think we would have a thriving saw producer.
You would also think we would make a decent tractor. nup
There are a few ride on mower producers, decent sturdy stuff too. By now probably all foregin owned.
Weve got a Kenworth factory, not sure if Mack is still up in Brisbane. But no Australian truck.
GMH and Ford and Toyota, the latter two are propped up by the government. Im sure GMH gets a hand too.
Its Ok we can dig big holes and sell the world the contents.
