    done a windfirming job, 8000 trees over 2 years, we were just topping crop for pheasant rearing pens, the remaining trees around were then felled over a number of years. dont think they got much bigger than 80ft at best and were close enough most of the time to sway across and tie on to. JPBeaver had the record of 66 in a day but urs truly did him on the last day with 72. was amazing with 15feet off the top how the crop stood still compared to the surronding trees. nice vid mate

  16. it isnt oiling probably............check that theres a filter on end of oil hose n oil tank. turn up oil screw, if that doesnt work, empty oil, puts some petrol n, put cap back on...may flush out crap. or take off oil pump, clean all pipes and re assemble, dont sure what turns the oil pump on 44, but check to see threads or lever are doing their job.
