[QUOTE="KiwiBro, post: 3308213, member: 33374"] Are the flywheels spinning that much faster than the others or is it the pinion gearing or? What happens when a too-hard bit of wood is hit? Surely there's some controlled release needed rather than the impact blowing something apart? The clutch won't release until the revs die slow down so that's not likely to take the sudden excessive impact. will the flywheel belts slip instead? Or should they all be designed so the rack will disengage or 'pop' off over a certain shock-loading limit, or do owners hope like hell it's all strong enough to handle the impact until the revs die off enough for the clutch to slip, without firing shrapnel in all directions?
