    Tuatahi Work Axe Review

    I used to mill about 150 tonnes a year of feature grade Jarrah logs back in the day. I also used to make a bit of furniture here and there. Not so much these days - I do the odd bit still but only for friends and family these days.

    Tuatahi Work Axe Review

    That's to be expected, because of the differences between our timber and uses for same and whats available in the northern hemisphere and its end uses! One of the big difficulties for us downunder is that we have tried so many proprietary axes and splitting mauls - with varying degress of...

    OK so I did find online and download a spare parts manual for the 084! This page showing the oil pump etc - seems to show part 22 the oil line that I suspect maybe either cracked or split & allowing oil to leak everywhere from the bar oil tank. I am guessing that being it's a staight piece...

    I tried to open the reviews page but ran into difficulties, so figured I might place it here and if the Mods/Admin wish please feel free to move it to the reviews section.
