@Mack72 Bought it roughly 10 months ago and the seller claimed it was recently serviced. After I inspected it looked like he wasn't lying. I service my decks if needed but this wasn't a case. It's current part of my set-up and in every day use. Works like a dream and I'd hate to see it go. I don't give any warranty on my decks as they're 30 or more years old components but I do offer aftercare/service if required. Thanks.
