  1. You are right, brad points are cheap and easy to sharpen. And the split shaft collar that you linked is a great way to make them even more versatile. With the split shaft collar, you can easily move the brad point to a new location when the tip wears out. This can save you money in the long run, as you won't have to keep buying new brad points.

I still think that a battery powered drill is the best tool for installing eco plugs. The drills that I mentioned are all powerful and versatile, and they make the job quick and easy. But if you are looking for a more affordable option, the split shaft collar is a great way to go. Ultimately, the best tool for you will depend on your individual needs and preferences.

  2. Makita XFD07Z 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Brushless 2-Speed Impact Driver: This drill is powerful and versatile, making it perfect for a variety of tasks, including installing eco plugs. It has a brushless motor that delivers up to 1,770 in-lbs of torque, and it can also be used as a hammer drill. The XFD07Z also has a 3-LED work light that makes it easy to see what you're doing in low-light conditions.
  3. Well, it has beed an old post, but i just met the same problem, so i'd like to share my thoughts. It may be: 1.Lack of lubrication. Needle bearings need to be lubricated regularly to prevent them from overheating and melting. If the saw is not used often, the needle bearings may not get enough lubrication and can prematurely wear out. 2.Dull chain. A dull chain can cause the clutch to drag and overheat, which can also damage the needle bearings. . Dirty clutch drum. A dirty clutch drum can cause friction and heat, which can damage the needle bearings.
  4. Whether you need to swap all 6 teeth out depends on the condition of your current teeth. If they are still in good condition, you can get away with swapping out just the leading teeth. However, if they are worn or damaged, it is best to replace all 6 teeth. The size of the teeth you choose will also depend on the size of your machine. For a P26/28 machine, the small teeth should be adequate. However, if you are cutting thicker branches, you may want to consider using larger teeth.
