  3. finally got around to changing oil. glad i did . shocked at how much water had accumulated . there must have been 2 litres.
  4. yes. great saw, ive had several but moved on to using t540 cause i didnt like the 201 when it came out first. one of my climbers uses my last ms200 so i might give him this one. any idea what would be a fair price to allow for it ? thanks
  5. i have been offered an ms 200 by a customer (landscaper). like new, totally genuine. little or no work done , maybe 5 years old. she wants to replace it with a small rear handle saw so i told her i would find out its value and take it as part payment on a job we,re doing. might keep or sell on. any value ? anyone interested?

  7. no. 4 rollers.
  8. i am pretty sure thats the roller feed type. had one for a few years ( around 1989 or so) very troublesome, hundreds of moving parts. clutches, chains, sprockets, splined shafts getting hammered the whole time. very fast and effective at taking off branches while being self-destructive to itself. measuring system was crap also. made super job of forest , 40 metres between racks in first thinnings, but not enough tons to cover downtime and repairs. also quite dangerous by todays standards. maybe ok for nice clean scandinavian thinnings.
  9. interesting woodchip trailer:thumbup:
  10. it tickets are nptc . they are fine. youll most likely need to do the uk equivelant of the safepass over there
  11. good time to change anvils if needed

  16. do they use Perkins engine?
  17. seem to be a good few big pto chippers on mascus. lots of them in holland for some reason
  18. we use 8 x 4 stokboard mats, mostly for driving across lawns but sometimes to cover slates etc.
  19. afraid not. rims wont swop either. might suit ldv up to 06 or so.
  20. i recently got quotes for both. main thing steering me towards the tw is the kubota engine
  21. thought i heard farmi not that good with leylandi
  22. be careful which one you use if you do. have been ripped off once or twice by company over here.
