    Sawpod is the best tree work thing since a big blower! I still have my first 1 at £20 from about 7 years ago, the newer 1 is even better.

    I'd want to know how much air a fountain actually creates and not get caught up in the wow factor.

    You right off as much as it makes sense to do that year. If it keeps you out a high tax bracket then it's up to the accountant to decide which is best, if you plan on borrowing more money the next year, say for a house, you need your profit as high as possible, to take the hit 1 year and take advantage the next. There is no simple 1 sentence answer I'm afraid.

    Chipper for the front so to use the winch , lugs could be put on the back blade to hook a chipper on for extra versatility! All the parts are there, it just needs the hiab at the back and a chip box in the middle. I don't think the hiab cherry picker bucket is allowed in the uk, but that's a pretty serious company so I must be wrong! Very low hours, the engine will have plenty of oomf but a bit more wouldn't go a miss!!

    These are 2 new 026's!! 1, the h and l settings. They only have 1 full turn and 3/4 turn , not sure which off hand. So that would be both wide open. Ady is right, it's the notch out the drum, clutch cover part. It locates over a little spindle to turn the pump. My saws don't have the little spindle, but do have the covers with the notch. They still oil fine. I was wondering why they would upgrade the design, yet keep the older part on the cover.

    Excellent!! Any pics of your work? I used to have bows as a kid, I remember butchering 1 trying make a crossbow!! My dad went bonkers!!

    Hi, usual me threw away the handbooks when the saws arrived last hear:001_rolleyes: 1, what's the hi and low settings? There are no numbers beside the screw holes:confused1: 2. The oiler, the clutch cover has the little notch out it, but there isn't a little spindle thing to turn, and the saw is oiling ok:confused1: Is this a new design but use up a huge box of older covers!!! Am I right in thinking they did this years ago and then went back to the turns thing. Cheers:001_smile:

    Yes last 1 got milled and is going to be a new floor in a castle renovation:thumbup1: This 1 got ringed up and stacked in the garden behind a big Laura's hedge to rot away and help the beasties!! Chipped all the limbs with the big chipper, just didn't seem fair on Gloria:laugh1:
