Hi.
I have an old Florabest FKS 2200/8 which I'm hoping to re-purpose. I want to use it in a home made firewood processor. The saw is running fine, but the quick tensioner is broken.
I haven't found much about this type of tensioner, and it's hard to see where the problem is. To me it looks like the "sprocket"/"button" circled red, slips from the hole in the bar.
They have a similar looking tensioner at one of my local stores, but surprise surprise many of the reviews complain about how easy it breaks.
Does anyone know if it's possible to convert to a standard tension system, or a suggestion on how I can use the saw in a stand without the quick tensioner?
