My friend thought it was okay to drive off with the bobcat while the saw was sitting on the tracks. This was bad thinking on Johnny's part. He blamed it on my machine having pilot controls and he being used to hand controls.:D

However, I am now in need of a few parts for said 021. It really didn't come out too bad considering. I need a rear handle/top cover, all one piece, and an AF cover. Could possibly need AV mounts, but not sure yet.

Actually, Johnny needs the parts, I am just the messenger. That and the installer of said new parts I spose.

I do have an ad in the classifieds so no need to reply telling me to place this in there! lol Just wanted to show what can happen when one is careless and forgetful or both! Sorry about the blurry pics - apparently I either have had too much coffee today or not enough!

Oh my, I feel your pain. That looks like something I would do. Sorry for your loss, hopefully it will be just the body parts and someone will be able to fix you up. Good luck!
 
:buttkick:Good thing it was a cremesickle. A Husky would have just disentegrated. It really looks better than I would have thought. I was scared to click.


Edit: beat me by 1 min. ^
 
I put the blame on whoever put the saw on the tracks of the bobcat! what did they think would happen?

Once again, same guy. Johnny did it. He had run out of gas with the saw, set it on the track to fuel it, and then after a break, went to go grab a bucket of wood I had cut. Only he forgot he had set the saw there.
 
Well, if that bobcat went completely over that saw and that is the extent of the damage to it, I may have to re-think my position on Stihl products! But only if it still starts and runs.:D
