I have two college degrees and paid off the tens of thousands of dollars for those degrees. After a 20 minute youtube video of how to fix my chainsaw - I felt I learned more life application skills over both my degrees.. I truly find it more rewarding to be able to analyze and fix problems myself over just paying someone else to do it..
I have learned I really appreciate hanging around older men that still have the determination and knowledge and experience of being able to fix things in this life. I truly hope technical schools and youth today are spurred on in this same determination.
I want to thank all you skilled laborers and those that work in trades of construction, mechanics, repair etc.........I would encourage you to slow down and teach some of the others around you some of your skills. You have tons of wisdom that many of us have no knowledge of.

Cut that sleeve back around the adjustment screws and the aftermarket tool will work then, spouse went through this issue too.
