Hi Toby
Oh that's a very good point that I wouldn't have thought of. I'm going to be taking the machine into a garden & turf supplier that deals with machinery to see if they have a blade replacement, if they do then I'll be sure to check that as well, thanks so much for the very valuable insight!
I hope you and your son are both well and still moving things along on the digger loader.
We are finished on the hoses, and added a new wheel; I'll post on it soon, it's been too hot to function here; and that's cut down on my posting!
I'm glad you didn't get hurt, when that blade sheared off. That could have hurt someone!
When you get the blade, put a knife blade across the center of the mounting hole. It should balance, if it's right; if not, remove some metal from the heavy side until it balances.
