AV rubbers and HAVs

[porky]

Who replaces them routinely unless they are bust? Do they harden with age?Just wondered if it really would reduce vibration levels significantly by fitting new ones on older saws.

routinely inspect for hardening or swelling

yes it does affect vib levels

we had one 254 that was 1hr daily usage and fitted new rubbers and close to doubled it and no tears or cracks but had swollen

but have more moved to springs other than MS200T:001_cool:

after using the 338 you can really feel the vibes on the ms 200t shame the power is not there on the 338, evan though the new model is supposed to have more!
