i'm in the same boat as you lol, try and move to next position and its there holding you back wrapped around your legs..... or you lift yourself up and try to stand in a fork for instance and your stood on it so can't stand up lol

Evening all i've recently purchased a long handle hedge trimmer stihl one, it has a fs85 engine so its obvioursly had an engine change or a new cover on it.... sometimes its slow to pick up... and i've tried adjusting the one carb adjustment screw to no effect.... is there a factory setting for these? i'm going to strip it and clean it all but wanted to set the carb so it picks up nice and crisp cheers chris

Good afternoon all This is my first time of looking into getting public liability insurance, i'm wondering what sort of a deal i need to be getting as have heard some policies are not worth what they say I'm 21 with a years experiance, got my tickets for felling and dismantling etc, I'm wanting to know what sort of cover i should be looking at to get? is it 5million or ten etc Also roughly what will i be looking at to pay. Just wanted a rough idea and some help before i ring up tomorrow cheers Chris
