Hi, One of the holes which the bolt that secures the up/ down directional bit on the end of the outflow pipe (the big orange tube that the chip flies out) has broken away so now have no great control on where the chip goes.

 

Is there a clever fix for this?

 

Would cutting a few inches off the pipe and drilling new holes be a bad idea?

 

Don't have a welder so can't fix that way.

 

Any Help be much appreciated.

 

Thanks

Thanks for that Hodge.

 

I'll go down the route of fixing existing then and not cutting it back and drilling new holes.

If you got a hole but no thread, use a bit and bolt with some fibre washers to clamp the flap at the required angle.
