standard eight

Hi Sean yes I did alter the springs to re-align the stick in 3/4th, thought I got it right but!!!! What are the consequenses of getting it wrong? As for internals no didn't touch anything accept where the linkage connects to the gearbox internals. Thanks for your time replying and sorry I haven't responded sooner, haven't got the notification thing set up right, all the best James

I have worked both sides of the counter selling and using and in my opinion you need horses for courses, Metabo make the best of nearly everything, not as true as it was but still some strength in it. Hitachi make the best chop saws C9U and C7U have been made for years, my Dad was a chippy and he swore by them. Makita make OK kit, and Bosch make good drills their GBH drills are superb. Dewalt, I would touch with a long stinky stick, I used to sell the stuff and we would return more than fifty percent of the kit we sold. If money is no object then Fein or Festo, you're bank manager will be crying himself gently to sleep but you'll never have to replace it. They make some interesting tools as well with beautifully though out features. The Fein battery drills used to have two battery positions to allow access in tight spaces. Great kit.

Please help, think I have made an error somewhere. Recently stripped down the gear change linkage tx linkage to replace the gaskets and oil seals due to oil leaks. Now in fifth, and a lesser extent down through the others there is a horrible vibration. I have a nasty feeling that I have failed to get a bit of it back together correctly, oh s&%t!! Please please help a simpleton.
