Yeah I thought I could use one since all I seem to do is run around and put out other peoples fires.That looks like a fireman saw
Good looking saw. I prefer the screw caps rather than the flip caps. I've had less issues with the screw caps but I broke a screw cap once over-tightening it. The inside of the cap feel inside the oil tank.Was that one if the choices .

will it double for snowblower with that pull starter ?..........lol.........Yeah I thought I could use one since all I seem to do is run around and put out other peoples fires.
It is a rescue saw which is the equivalent to the R version (wide clutch cover, wrap handle, pretty sure they have the HD oiler) plus the shield on the front, and the D starter handle also. There is no decamp on them and there is a rubber filler in the decomposition hole.
What's the 180 part of your screen name, 180 PSI?
Yeah, but chainsaws are loud. And dangerous. And smelly.
I'm gonna be in my safe place knitting a new hat.

Typical screnches have small tips that can easily set up too much torque. I've never broken a screw cap with this tool.
Until a helper puts them on too tight with a scrench , yup, I have it happen every time!Yeah I just always used my hand. Never had to use a scrench except to get a cap off someone else had put on with one.
I have replaced dozens of screw on caps that owners bring in. Almost all of them were cracked by a scrench. Recall that Stihl often placed a decal right next to the fuel cap showing the scrench tightening the cap. I often thought they did that in order to sell lots of replacement caps.Until a helper puts them on too tight with a scrench , yup, I have it happen every time!
