Importance of a *REAL DEALER*.
Original Message   Dec 18, 2007 10:32 am
Bought a brand new Simplicity a week ago. Only ran a gallon through it. Noticed the cable that controls the chute deflector has abraded the outer jacket away where it runs through the little curly cue thingy welded on the chute.
So, I called the dealer, told him about it, and he said he would order one today, and call me when it came in. Cool.

But then I thought, what if I had just bought at a borg (Home depot, etc) store. I would of more than likely had to live with it until it dies an early death, and then fix it at my cost. I am sure that at any rate, it would not have been this easy.

Food for thought to all those who see a "great deal" at the depot!

Carry on!

Hmm, he has not called yet to say it is in.  Would you have done the same thing, or just paint the area in liquid  electrical tape? I figure for as much cabbage as I put into this, it ought to be perfect.

I wouldn't do that. If the liquid seeps through, the cable may bind.
