[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 31469, member: 82"] I would suspect it simply runs in oil like most of the other machines. How much chain noise are you talking about? a small amount of 'chain slap' isn't a real issue. You can try lifting the wheels off the ground and see how much each wheel will rotate by hand. On each side, they should turn the same amount back and forth with the slack in the chain. I'm wondering of it gets noisier as the oil warms and thins out, the noise “may” be normal. I have a bobcat that uses a steel guide for the chain, it makes a slapping noise. The other one i have uses plastic, its quiet as a mouse. [/QUOTE]
