Tools, Tools, Tools, Tools,
Power tools are such a scam.
You buy a name brand like Craftsman, you think you are buying a tool that
will last a long time. A friend brought
me a Craftsman chain saw and asked me get it running. After breaking it down I
bought Primary and secondary fuel lines, carb rebuild kit and clutch cover.
Upon further examination I discovered broken fuel lines
inside the carburetor compartment and to save time I decided to contact Sears
about the fuel system plumbing.
Sears told me that since the saw was not under warranty that
they could not answer my question. I was
told I would have to take it to service center.
The way I see it these tools are made with given short
comings that are known to fail. A
service center pays a fee to the manufacture to repair these items and is given
support as needed. So, if you want to
fix you own tools don’t look for support from Sears for any tools you might
have purchased
Ok I will go back to shop and figure out the plumbing without
their help; it is not that difficult I was just trying to save a little time.
I bought a Stihl saw 1997 and have NO problem with it. They
have an online manuals with exploded views of the products so if it does need
some repair the answers are right there.
Be aware of where you shop and what you buy.
