2101xp mate, they have a manual oiler over-ride to get extra oil to the bar,perfect for milling, might be looking to sell mine !!
-
yep all the above, the yanks seem to favour skip chains,they run big bars on say a 372xp,less stress so less hp needed, 880,s and 3120,s are never going to be fast anyway, just keep chain in tip top condition spec on big bars and keep the cutters even, grandma and egg sucking etc,good luck with your big saw

dolmar 166, but getting rare now
-
husky 2101 xp, might need skip chain for 48" tho
-
i would charge £15-£18 per hour,breaking it down,£14p/h labour,£1 p/h fuel,then depending on if youre using lines or blade, factor in strim line and blade maintenance
-
ps, thats a stihl duromatic on my 153 in my avatar,had to drill adjuster hole out a bit
-
had this problem with my dolmar 9000, you can change the bar studs to fit 009 mount or do what i did and take the 009 mount bar to a metal worker and get them to mill/cut bar mount out to 14mm(i think) worked well for me, was oregon power match, cheers
-
i think my jonsered 2150 has that set up, seems ok
-
as someone else said, check out local dealer, if you need a plug or new fuel can,you dont want to be waiting on a delivery, breakdowns cost money , so get your face known in your local dealer and im sure they will help out with getting kit repaired quickly,good luck mate
-

miker replied to GordonRochdale's topic in Business Management
good luck finding work, dont do unpaid work tho,you still have to eat,pay rent/mortgage etc, send out some letters to local firms, when you see a gang working, give them a card/see the boss,you never know where it will lead -
im being thick here, what is pts ?
-
my old 153 went to the great chainsaw graveyard in the sky because i couldnt get parts,hope you find the parts you need,have you tried the usa ebay might find them there

love the jonny reds,i have a 2149,2150 and an older 2077,the 2077 outcuts my husky 281 all day long, im after a 2165,good logging saw,same as a 365, sold my 2156 a while back and regretted it ever since think it was the same as a 357, a right whizzer, took the auto decomp off and blanked it off and replaced with manual decomp,you should love your 2152,great saw
