    Chainsaw Stihl MS 170 and Y55 Chain

    You got it, it's a little gas powered 16" bar. And you are correct in that it appears to be .043. Learn something new everyday. Thanks for your help.

    Chainsaw Stihl MS 170 and Y55 Chain

    Hey All, I put a new blade on the chainsaw but it seems way too tight in the bar. First chain I've changed so I've got a question. Packaging says it's good for Stihl and it's a Y55 type. Is it just a matter of getting it turning so it breaks itself in a bit? Or should I try another chain?

    "Extension" Rototiller Tines

    It's a Duramark for certain. I wish it was a more common machine as I do not know who makes it. Doc thanks for the link. What I mean when I say "extension" is not to add length to the tines but to add more tines. It has two now but I'm sure the shaft is built for an addition and at 5HP I'm sure...

    "Extension" Rototiller Tines

    Greetings All, First time poster. I'm in need of some add on tines for a 5HP Duramark front tine tiller. it's a good machine but without the extra tines it's a flowerbed tiller at best. Three hours to till a normal size garden with it is cruel and unusual punishment. I'm not having much luck...
