Ok so this is a daft question I just need someone to confirm what I think
Which way does the blade on a brushcutter rotate ? Clockwise or anti clockwise. Now my guess is it's clockwise . Can someone please confirm this? Why does it matter? Well I don't want to waste time sharpening the wrong side

all engines go clockwise in rotation where a single non selective gear box is found only when an engine has a selective gear box would there be a reverse gear and the engine would still go forwards Wink

Thanks Karl

That's what I thought so as it's a straight shaft drive the blade wil go clockwise
