  1. Should I be fitting the pump piston kit to my running MS200's if they have the S61D carb? How can I check if they have the S61D carb?
  2. The pistons are all shot apparently. The latest one the Tool Shop have just taken it to bits and say it's not worth puttling back together.. So I'm collecting dead saws. I'll try DM next time.
  3. We have had 4 MS200's that after about 18 months (if they don't get nicked) seem to stop running properly and need huge amounts of cash spent on them to get them going again. Our ground saws seem to run and run. We've an 039 that we use loads which I've had for over 8 years and apart from replacing bits which wear out it's never missed a beat. I know the ms200's get alot of abuse in the tree, but I don't think after a year or two I should be needing to spend £150+ to repair them. Do other people get Ms200's to run for a long time or is it best just selling them at a year old?
  4. Ash takedown over houses and electric lines.. No damage..
  5. Bracing a copper beech, which didn't need bracing...
  6. We had to cut it up in to manageable bits then carry it 300m round a twisty path to the road (we used a bobcat). We also planked some with a chainsaw mill.
