I have tried to search the forum but have drawn a blank. I recently acquired an HS 80 hedge trimmer. Looks to be in good condition. It’s not running very well. It either runs ok once started but dies at idle or won’t rev. There are only 2 adjusting screws. As in first pic. The case shows H/L for one and LA for the other. Can anyone help me with some base settings. I’ve tried 1-2 turns out on HL. Which will get it to start but the LA doesn’t seam to do much. Just need a starting point. Thanks in advance.

The only reason I looked at case/NH was the extra pump. The spec says 50ltr constant flow so I can track and flail. Flailing wise would be brambles and small self sown trees on brown sites so there is normally a lot of contamination in terms of rubbish. I currently have a green climber lv500 and it’s brilliant, but my business seems to be moving more towards trees than scrub. im thinking 50% flail work 25% grab work 25% actually digging and grading. Thanks

If you watch YouTube video on Kebtec pruners do by that Australian look bloke, he shows what they have fitted to stop chopping pinky off. But you have to set it every time.

I tried one of these at a fair once. Thinking "how hard can it be, I've a pretty keen sense of balance", I was confident. Turned out it was nigh on impossible, I didn't even manage one rung.

To be honest, your doing well to get three chains worth of life out of a Husqvarna 135 ! Assuming the saw and bar is OK, I'd clean up the bar, get the rails flat and true and replace the chain and sprocket. The problem is these parts wear together. An worn sprocket will mess up a new chain, a messed up chain will mess up the new sprocket.

Just check the local people, they need a 10x1.0 helicoil kit and willing/able to do it.

Nope the guard is 100% coming off before its first job. Note the Fakita, which apart from having a bulky motor sticking out the side, is actually pretty good. Its only a basic DC motor but it feels to have decent power and chain speed. Cant remember when I last used it.

Tracked machine problems advice required.

Yes but fixing on site could mean you have to wait for someone to come out to wherever you are. It's not I could call the AA to get me home. I don't know why they don't offer a system like you say. Something where you can put the machine in neutral so that you can push it out or even tow it out of gear. - Yesterday

Have you tried this bit of the site? https://arbtalk.co.uk/recycling/ I wouldn't recommend woodchip to get rid of weeds though. Not in the long term at least. They'll work for a couple years, if in a sufficiently thick layer, but as soon as they start to rot and breakdown they'll just form fertile new soil for weeds to grow in. Better to use an inorganic mulch like chippings or slate. Or just accept that there'll always be weeds and remove them as and when they get too much, and certainly before they set seed.

on holiday at the moment so cant investigate further, but ive unhidden it for you in the meantime.

This one has me stumped. Tree crown is around 10-15 metres in height and spread. Not a lot of photos as I was slightly distracted by the Naturists in the garden and didn’t want to give them the wrong idea. No matter what time of day it is, why are they always playing lawn tennis?

Just buy the Oregon or stihl can, with the Stihl spouts. Throw the husky one in the bin.

I like how light and out the way the Protos coms are, only really need one ear anyway. Overall I’ve been happy with those, though I can see advantages to the pro coms. Like proper hearing protection.

Late summer is after fruiting, and to avoid damp conditions in autumn as silver leaf likes the damp. I always say "well the books will tell you..... " and then go on to say mostly we ignore that and do trees whenever we get to them else we'd be hungry 6 months of the year. In any case I'm not sure that there is actually that much risk of silver leaf in the average garden, it's more of a stone fruit orchard problem. The spores are released from fruiting bodies on dead wood, so gardens being tidy there isn't much about.
