Machine is brand new, 11 hours. Fan blade came apart, tearing up the radiator. Takeuchi did take care of the problem under warranty in a pretty quick fashion,(aside from the 1 hour trip to haul it to their closest service dealer) but was wondering if anyone else has experienced this or was it an isolated incident? Liking the machine so far, build quality seems good, and has plenty of power for it's size. Takeuchi did send me a 250 hour service kit and a service manual free of charge as way of an apology.
