blade attaches to the trombone arm and works in a back and forth motion like a giant hand saw ,, you can see the blade just tucked behind the arm in one of the photo,s..

its a bl##dy lethal thing totally un-govened flat out two stroke. no starting handle  you retard the timing and turn the flywheel backwards by hand until she kicks back in the opposite rotation then throw the timing lever to the advance position and if youve got youre own timing right ,,off she go,s as i said ,,bl##dy,, lethal,, i got it over 20 years ago when it ,,bit,, the former owner breaking his wrist and fore arm , idiot had tried to use a starting handle of something on it |

What a fantastic piece of lunatic engineering.  Built in the days when Darwins theory of natural selection became mechanised, these machines replaced our natural predators If you were very carefull it didn't kill you. If you were smart you didn't go near it in the first place. |
