thanks for all the replies and advice,i always keep the guns serviced so as you all say it is the cold gas,all my feather edge was frozen together this week also and had to replace a few rails due to splitting on the frozen ends,finished my glut of closeboard now for a week or so,back on knee rail for next few jobs, nail guns can have a warm up in the kitchen!!

been having problems with my nail gun this past week, as in it not firing,been working in -1 to 1 above,was wondering if cold weather will mess with the gas??

agree ms 181 is very under powered, ok for ending rails and very light firewood cutting etc i use a husky 268 and 272 for all my firewood, a bit heavy but then again its a hard old life anyway !

good way of making a secure and strong fence,albeit not the most attractive way of doing it, but if done correctly the concrete spurs will be there for a lifetime, only problems i have come across is getting the old bolts out of the spur, good luck

just found a site with initial carb settings for husky saws,and it states that for a 575 xp,initial settings should be H 3 L 1/1/2(ONE AND A HALF) seems very high H setting to me
