    i used gareths 372 with heated handles and i was like im getting heated handles went straight to rouses traded my 372 in and bought 372xpg just need to make sure you cut the wire for the carb heater as if you have that on to long you will screw the saw up best to cut the wire for it so cant aciidently knock it on.

    i had the honour of watching reg before i booked a crane for one of my jobs, he makes it look so easy, alot to live up to aswell after seeing him do it, but you learn so much by taking the plunge and trying it your self.

    in a ideal world you would reduce and brace so if/when it desides to fall off it wont do any/ or not as much damage to the gate but its a costly thing im finding out bracing.

    trouble i find with just leaning back is its fine for slight leans. but when you get a decent lean, you have to go out so far that you cant reach the work properly.
