  1. We should be kicking around with some of Saints and sinners (dundee)! the evil other half is from dundee!

  2. Thats a few pints of carling to be saved!
  3. Im just looking for something I can put in in the morning and talk normaly during the day. I have seen some well over the £200 mark!! They appeal as I can demo, knock saw/chipper etc to tick over, talk, then resume work.
  4. was the chain doing this prior to putting the second bar on??
  5. Its HUGE! need to get there, great weekend on the lash!
  6. How does it feel, look? is there any movement lateraly? does it have stiff points when rotating it? Have you got a Stihl gauge, which checks the gauge of rails, you can use this to check whether the rails have been pinched. Try running a chain off the engine unit? drop a NEW chain into the groove and pull by hand, you might feel where the tight spot is
  7. Go to the Oregon website, you can download a great PDF which has Q&A's and fault finding...........OREGON Maintenance and Tips
  8. Is the sprocket worn, or have the rails been pinched? is the bar true?
  9. Any Arb-Bikers going to the Farmyard Party in Helmsley the 18th June?
  10. Has anyone had any experience of custom fit ear plugs with filters in? Im pondering whether to invest in some specsavers charge around £130 per pair. They tailor make them to suit the end users environment.
  11. Boots are vey much a preference, I prefer Haix Trekker boots, but anything meeting En345-1 S3 Class 1 are what your looking for.
  12. You shouldnt need anything more than the above (class2/type c) John
  13. Class2 type C trousers should be sufficient. What size saw are you thinking of buying?
  14. As the famous expression goes.......refer to the manufacturers handbook for your specific machine data.
  15. The main reason the chain speed increases from manufacturers spec would be: Shorter bar length Changing the main drive sprocket
  16. Looks like beal 10.5mm sport climbing rope?
  17. The CS100 also comes in a PTO version for mounting on compact tractors!!
  18. Not my turnover, the company I work for. Why every year/18mth?? If you have that much trouble buying one, do your CS units?
  19. Gypsies are different to pikies. our tree side has just short of 1m turnover, we dont use saws at that rate!
  20. NO ffs because of 'I find it increasingly hard to buy a 200t'.......how many do you go through?
