Was a great day when dad got the Homelite super XL12 ! Was quite the saw in its day.
12 pounds as advertised, never put it on a scale though. 16:1 fuel mix . Manual oiler, no AV or chain break , and pretty loud . Did a lot of cutting with it as I older.
She should light right off after you check the vitals and give her a new battery. I get sucked into watching Diesel Creek on YouTube firing up equipment that could be that Deere's grandpa !
Yikes! Glad you're still on this side to tell the tale ! TBN is quite the resource for these close calls to act as a warning to us all ! We should have a way to reach out to the members closest in a case like this to help out while a brother is down and out ! Get well soon !
Friend of mine got a Ventrac last year, he is seriously in love ! Not much can touch it on slopes. Front mount mower does a beautiful job. Now he's collecting other implements for it.
