dan z Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 how come you dont like the shaver blades? I have a ld-7 and I do not have ne problems hand drilling during early ice... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarsusd81 Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 The chipper blades are flat and have teeth, the lazer blades are curved and go through the ice like a hot knife in butter. Keep the lazer, you will be happy you did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Carlson Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 They are designed for that particular blade configuration, you will need to stay with the shavers, or get a 2000 lower auger flighting assembly to replace the one you have now. You may find somebody willing to swap if you ask around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhjr Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I've got an extra chipper style, but you're a bit far for a trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iambjm Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 I have the Strikemaster 2000 with the chipper blade and I have less problems cutting than my friend with the lazer blade. He bent his flighting so I lent him my spare chipper blade. I also have a MagIII that was at least 15 years old and never had a problem with the flighting or the blades.

Craigums Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Ive got a pair of 8'' Lazer Blades, I need the 9'' Lazer Ultra Blades (3 to a set). If anybody has those I'd swap, and probably throw you some cash. I bought the wrong ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerkbait Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Mnhunter, if you have to push down on the lazer to make it cut the pitch of the blades is off. SM can repitch the blades and it will cut effortlessly. Did you buy it used or new? Also, the only complaint I know of with the Lazer is reopening holes in the perm, not always a problem but once in awhile. That might be the only trouble, with your perm a Zipple. But for hole hopping, like said earlier, hot knife through butter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_Cappo Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 i bought it brand new and the guy told me i might have to press down a little to get it to cut.i got the duel blades but i dont think its not cutting the way it should.he also told me it would not redrill holes.but thats where i can put my eskimo drill on it strikemaster head.maybe i'll get a hold of strikemaster and ask them about the pitch.

jerkbait Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Yeah, I would call SM. I have seen peolpe cut with them and it is effortless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhjr Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 I just set mine on the ice and hit the throttle. There's no need to push down as it sucks right down through the ice. If you have to push on it something definitely isn't right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
