When chunking down a stem with a big saw, position you strop low enough for you to take of two slabs, cut the first slab then begin the next cut, apply chain break and leave the saw in the cut while you throw the cut slab and move down the stem, so you don't have the saw trying to pull your harness down.

You lucky bugger!!!

When working over walls or fences take the end of the branch then as you work your way back in, chunking it off, as you cut through flick the log away from the target with the bar of the saw. When swinging large branches in that are too heavy to hold, cut a very open gob, start top cut, as it starts to go hold it to stop the hinge breaking before it swung as far as you want. When chunking off large laterals over a target, huck your foot under the chunk as you cut it off, kick it away from the target.

Could be an unevenly sharp chain. If one side of the chain is sharper or has significantly larger teeth, the saw tries to cut a very acute curve, which it can't do so it starts to die. Much more likely to happen on full chisel chain. Just a thought.

Yes,yes, I know, but the prussic is like an old pair of slippers that you've had for years, you know that a new pair will be far better but, you just keep putting it off.

Good plan!!

The new ones are fine!, well mine is. I had problems the two before that, but they were both sorted within the first week by my dealer, they then ran great. I don't follow the heard, I use the best tools I can to make my working life easier. I much prefer stihl, for hard woods.

Beech removal from Monday and today, wanted it done in two days, but the weather yesterday slowed us some what. Had hoped to have all the top of on Monday, but as you can see from the first pic, still had some top this morning (no pic's yesterday too wet) Any way really nice weather today every thing went well and we got back on schedule and got finished!! Not the best pic's, sorry.
