Four trips to town, one broken drill bit but finally made a pass. One grease zerk was missing from the double roller, due to stripped threads, I drilled it out and installed a press in zerk. Don't know how long this unit as sit, but I was pleasantly surprised when it cut like a champ. Now to judge the distance that the end of my bar sticks out would be a plus.
