all i know is if the tree has failed in some way and the branches are on the BT line forcing the line down below their regulation height BT will remove the line until the problem is removed then put it back up reason being they don't won't the poles ripped down by a lorry if it catches the line thats only any use to you if the poles on the other side of the road
-
i'd be more worried about the LV than BT
-
BT are a PITA they would rather come out and fix it after you snap it than take it down we've had call outs were they wont take them and their on site

thats the point i was trying to make the OP said that the saw had a lack of power had the carb cleaned and still the same i always look at other options first ive know albeit a strimmer to have lack of power due to a clogged up fuel filter

if it works from ground controls but not basket could it not be the ground/basket control switch is faulty

Voted Clark's SuperTack Bio chain oil used to use stihl synth plus no problems with either
-
or use a long ladder poking out the window just make sure you have more of the length on the inside that's the critical bit
-
that's the way to go we used to do that double up a couple of 13ft scaffold boards 3ft out the window and 10 inside and you don't even need 2 fatties on the other end just someone who can sit still for 10 minutes

pick them up with litter pickers then you don't have to touch them then put them in a sharps container

make you right the arms snapped off that's why it looked to big to be the circlip same thing happened to my 261
-
that's where it's meant to live in front of the the oil seal but that one looks to big how wide is it internally
-
your going to need some if i remember rightly there's a circlip that holds the bearing in place as well

the one i just did clutch drum out then drift it out

i would think they look at the price of logs from a merchant and that is the deciding factor i wouldn't buy from a merchant either i do my own from our arising's but in all fairness i reckon the money i would spend on logs if i bought my yearly needs would be more than i save on gas
