[trusty-mad]

i have recently purchased a selection of tarpen equipment and have a couple of bits i hope some of you people can help me with. i have a 20b chainsaw on a flex drive. however i have to different flex shafts (photo 1) but i am not sure which one should be on the saw or if it matters? i also have a drive unit for the flex shaft (photo 2&3) which is missing an engine. dose anyone know what engine it should have?

Hello Robert.
When I had a chainsaw tarpen flex attachment it was fitted with the shaft which had the twistgrip clutch at the end, most useful if you got the saw jammed or needed to stop the blade in emergency. I would not entertain using the saw attachment without that little clutch unit.

thanks for that Chris. i did wonder what the twist bit on the end was for.

Missing engine more than likely a Villiers four stroke, mark 10 or 12
