Husky 372xp or Stihl ms441

[joatmon]

im a lefty so it never really crossed my mind. i just presumed that right handed people were smart enough to work these things out

+1

Every one is born right handed. Only a few brilliant souls overcome it.

 

[joatmon]

lol yeah... they're a bit small though. Might send them back to him under warranty

Don't complain. At least the return shipping won't hurt.

I drive this beast most days just now. The joystick is on the left i find ir real easy to do.
We had a new machine up on demo the arm and controls were on the right!!! Not much good for the UK but trying to learn to work a new machine on a strange tractor with the controls on the wrong was a bit tricky lol

Heres what a i did to the other tractor we have lol

It will only push down with 100KG of pressure

I had it so far over when we were towing it out that the door wouldnt open!
Irf the chain broke it was going over!
I walked that bit of ground and drove over it twice before that happened lol

50%?

Why do you need diagnostic time on new unsold product? if its new and unsold, the problem will be cosmetic, or pretty obvious without picking up the tools.

guaranteed the other problems are from poor pre delivery.

there is an idiot involved in this store somewhere. either the idiot in the workshop who pd's / assembles / services, or the idiot who owns the store that stocks a product with a 50% failure rate.

I can tell you right now, that husky, stihl, dolmar, even ####### ryobi, dont have a 50% failure rate unless there is an idiot involved.



STK

:yourock: :kilt: :kilt: :kilt: :kilt: :wave:



...and not even the cheapest Poulan has the crap factor of the Ryobies I have seen.....

Cutting down trees DUH lol

Belive it or not this guy used to be a fully qualified Arborist but gave it up because of his back and thats the only saw he has left!

And yes our shop is struggling with trying to work on new unsold product and customers machines also beings that Im the only 2 stroke tech in the shop, I work on so many new huskys I take them home to diagnose them beings husky wont pay for "diagnostic time" and that cuts into my part time timber falling fun.

Yeah, that's why we dumped them. I was having to take 5 day weekends just to keep up with the warranties.

Neither a 7 or 8 pin .325 rim will fit the original large 7-spline drum of that saw, so someone has made an effort to make it fit......:jawdrop:
