  1. oops, missed the bit about it being 7 m high. ignore my advice on cutting back roots to 2 foot, probably 4 foot would of been better. big tree to move. try it and see. ill give it a 15% chance at that size......
  2. 100% agreement with gareth. ideally the larger roots should of been cut back to about 2 foot from the root collar to encourage fibrous roots. keep the tree upright and solid so it cannot move as this stops the roots trying to fight for survival and get established. plant in its final position NOW, or leave it in the ton bag till its leaves fall of in the autumn, then move it. it may bud then look like its dying. (no leaves) if this happens, leave it alone till winter (apart from keeping it watered) they can come back from lower down sometimes. its just a case of cutting back the dead wood then.
  3. breeze block, im interested in your 2 cylinder. how much are you looking for? then the next problem is will it fit as engine bay is tiny. the original engine must of really been packed in well......
  4. had considered it but seem them go on ebay around 100/150 mark. honda GD410 is a good one as ite electric start. anyway, thanks for post
  5. hi my trusty hanix H06 has died....she needs a new engine. weighing in at 600kg it only needs to be around 7/8/9 hp but gotta be diesel. the current dead one is a lombardini 15 LD 350 but gonna cost £300 to rebuild her..... anybody got something that will do for the right price.......?
  6. in my town, anybody with a van, pick up or estate car is now advertising as either a landscaper or a tree surgeon or block paver. went to do a quote last week to do some 'remedial' work on a fly by night block paving job, and to be honest it looked like it had layed from a helicopter. my advice to her was take up and redo...... by somebody who knows what they are doing
  7. in fact spud, also after a small stihl. would part ex all my top handled saws and parts for the above if its of interest to you
  8. just noticed your bit on the bottom about spares. got an stihl 020. needing full chainbreak side of saw, including chainbreak handle, bar and chain. would do you a part ex if your interested. got various 338's and other stihl top handled parts
  9. cheers spud when i get a free day ill take it to bits................... again. to be honest it runs like a dream and starts no matter what abuse i give it. still prefer stihl for working on though.
  10. i bought this husky i think as a bet, as i always buy stihl, and must of had a brain storm to buy husky junk. the oiler keeps packing in. ive had it apart 3 times (which takes a while ) cleaned the oiler, new plastic drive gear etc but nearly instantly it stops oiling the chain and plastic drive gear is knackered...... any suggestions before i put it on the next bonfire and laugh as it burns and melts slowly
  11. i would not suggest lean fuel here. have you checked big end and little end bearings. these do tend to fail eventually and cause this sort of damage. the needle rollers come out of housing. before this happened did you happen to notice a rattling noise on tick over? is the top of the piston dented?
