  11. Two months ago I had just finished a 10 hectare site using my fs 460, got home put new blade, and gave it a quick service ready for next job, then the father in law ask if he could use it , I reluctantly said yes so I gave him saw and fuel, about 3 hours later he turned up and just put it in my work shop and went home, I went to it next day to find the blade had a few teeth missing and bent , when I ask him what had happened he just said that there was a lot of rocks in his next door neighbours forest, so he said he would get me a new blade I told him its not the blade I am bothered about it's the rest of the machine, he just laughed 6 days later clutch springs snapped.
