The tool-less adjuster contraption on the little light-duty 023 I was given is the worst designed piece of junk in living history. The clowns who designed the stihl tool-less adjusters need a damn good slapping around the ears - and that goes for any stihl dealer who would lower themselves to sell such junk. The designers obviously don't understand that a chainsaw actually collects debris and dirt.
Guess they were never told that when they were handed their engineering degrees in their air-conditioned classrooms at university, with their occasional stroll out onto the manicured back lawn for "theory-testing." And they certainly were never taught the K.I.S.S. principal either.
The nasty and chintzy tool-less contraption attracts crap like a magnet. The ridiculous toothed-wheel contraption and the stupid painful-on-the-finger-tips adjuster knob and floppy-feeling plastic flapper all quickly turn into a useless, stiff, notchy, aggravating pile of annoying shyte with no precision or control. All you end up doing is tearing skin off your fingers. Absolute waste of bloody time.
Did I mention that I'm not impressed with them?? :blob5:
