Everything I have found is the ts500i as well. Searches the European sites and it lists ts500i and ts460 I believe. Think there may be confusion in the names leaving off the first 2 letters

Ok I guess the troof is gotta come out sooner or latter ... and it will be played down just so they don’t look silly.

There was a recall on the 661 when it was first released too. I heard ten different "reasons". Bottom line......who knows. Don't panic. Have a Snickers bar and get your asses back to work.

Shouldn’t you be grinding????

Probably this is some issue with the spark arrester. In good old Europe the most saws come without this feature.

From the saw! I think I have got it on the camera, if
it was switched on. There will be trouble

This is old news.

This video was discussed almost 1 year ago. He switched off the saw while running.
Unburned fuel hence was pooled in the muffler and then inflamed after evaporation.



Edit: .... while still running in the wood

I’ll take you up on the snickers but I ain’t fixin another vehicle until this recall thing is settled. Therefore if you can fix your vehicle yourself you might want to save it for emergencies. Lol
