The treescape trucks have that system, its pretty hard to defeat, especially when there tipper also has a bucket snorkel rested on it as well. Best way to explain it is that there are two cupboard doors that on the inside have like a towel rail mounted inside each door. The rails line up with each other when closed. The sides of the toolbox have a hole where a long 20mm round rod can be inserted which then goes through the towel rails and through the other side of the box. You put the rod in with the deck tipped up, then when the deck is down it sits pretty snug to the rod. (which is straight with a bend at the end to be a kind of handle.) They double as a great place to hang gear on the inside of the doors.

I love huskys, but I have had terrible "luck" with their coils in the 272 394 395 and 3120. Hot saws that wont start get boring very quickly.

whats the difference between a harley and a hoover? The position of the dirt bag!

Things a stihl dealer will never say "You dont have to buy the assembly, you can just buy that part." "Oh that part costs less than the postage" "Oh yeah these are way overpriced" "I wouldnt pay that if I were you either" "Oh we have had lots of these back and we dont know how to fix them quite right, I dont think you should buy one until its sorted" "Oh yeah, stihl is totally ripping off its customers outside the US" "We wasted alot of your money on time and parts you didnt need" "yeah these saws are substandard"

Dont forget to download trapster onto you smartphone/GPS. Every man should have it.

Great unit, very cool indeed. I wonder what it would cost to send a stack of them to little ole NZ....

I will have to give the 550 a spin, I have a ported 346 and a few standard ones. A starter,muffler, clutch springs and a brake handle is all they have needed over the last 7 years. Great saws.

Im a guy short after my climbers girlfriend showed up wanting to travel so if anyones bouncing about and looking for some climbing work give me a bell on 0800 158 508.

check if the rotor was rotated as they greased it the first time, in many chippers failing to do it causes failures in new bearings alarmingly quickly

I had a medium/large sycamore dismantle yesterday. Easy access and not to technical but I was short one guy (just 2 of us). wood stayed where it fell. I went nuts, had the green off by 11am and the next 6 hours was just a bombing mission, no breaks. I climbed with both a ms200t and a power ported 346xp on my belt. Then the 3120xp (aweful fat shoulder breaking speed machine) on the trunk until I snapped the chain...grr. the 66 felt like slow going but got us there. Got it done, client impressed, 820 pounds plus tax. nice!

Piece of cake. GRCS, Muck truck, 200 346 440 660 and 880.

if you can afford it, get a bigger engine that can be run at lower load. A liquid cooled engine would be MUCH better. Heck bodge up a car engine to it. the exhaust is only so much of the engine noise, alot of it is made by the intake and general internal mechanical noise. Vibration is going to be alot of the racket, if you can isolate the engine and hydraulic pump using rubber engine mounts it will make a difference. The engine needs less air than you might think. the engines can handle great heat so long as there is some outside air circulation. YOu can always run an oil cooler if you have to. Running the exhaust into a drum of water is a very good start, its how log poachers get the job done quieter. To keep good engine getting to the air filter, take the filter off, run a snorkel up and put a filter at the end of it, This will allow for cool clean air for the engine. Take the fuel tank off, run a longer hose and mount it up on a ladder or something nearby. Then make your muffle box

If an apple can survive your working conditions, your not working hard enough!

I ran stihl bg85's for years and years and thought they were good. Got a echo PB655 and relised I had wasted WEEKS (WEEKS I SAY) of productive time puffing around the job with an underpowered machine. The extra money you spend on a backpack will pay itself of over and over and over again. Going back to handhelds is like running your saws on the job at half throttle Go the big backpacks!!!!!!!

Usually do a 60 to 80 hours a week. Gear breaking ads up quick to my hour count. Piece of cake compared to milking cows.

Nice truck, the cabinets look well sorted. Well done. Overloading is all good. Its only being caught overloading thats a downer. (apparently)

I sell it for a bottle of red wine per metre but I have a 24/7 free dump spot 10 mins from home. That way I can honestly say I dont make any money from the mulch. (hic!)

I must have 12 ms200t and 020t's in my shed. One is brand spankers. I currently have 7 of them wanting love because of carb trouble. I dont have to look at the MS201t for a long time, hopefully long enough for the MS201T to be properly sorted straight out of the box, and if that doesnt happen Im sure brad snelling will sort on for me. His saws are awesome!

I brought a car for 50$ and found over $50 in coins and a new swiss army knife. if it had been a landrover, it still wouldnt have been worth the price:001_tt2::001_tt2:

1) Our job rocks and plumbing sucks. 3 year olds dont spend hours watching them work in awe. We slay giants and dont smell like poo. 2) We are paid what we ask to be paid. Its on us.

God told me the other day to be an athiest, tricky.

Its 64k for a new mitsubishi with 3000kg capacity. Here the kia's pretty good bang for your buck. I like the fact that as a legal lightweight its got some great capacity.

Dont you guys get these in the UK? A little work brings up the GVM to 3500 giving them a 1700kg load. 700kg unbraked tow, 1400kg braked. Kia K2900 Other countries get them in 4wd and double cab to. reliable and easy on the gas bill.
