How cheap was it? Where from? Have you fiddled with carb settings or anything else? Don't fret, it will work eventually!

Try leaving it with plug out till all nice and dry, then try again with no throttle lock.

Hire one?

....and what sort of chain catcher should it have? L shaped one or straight across type? Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

Also I got some issue with my dawgs. Only one type listed on parts diagram but I got 1 huge and 1 normal size?this is unacceptable (saw came like this) so anyone know which part no the big one is? Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

This filter fit for the bin? Looks like there may have been some felt on this at some point? Or its very clogged and I blew it off with airline? Anyone know? Is it just supposed to be mesh or mesh and finer stuff? Thanks Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

Get a teenie makita dcs230t which is ok, but occasionally get a bit chain creep, this is pretty random but usually only when been used for a while. Have turned the s screw (only one) down a bit but then it cuts out when dangling off a strop after a minute or two. Also noticed that it's exceeding it's max rpm (11.5k) sometimes up to 11.8 or 12k. Can't seem to alter this on the s screw? Any advice? Also how to tune a bg55 blower?same one screw tuney thing. Ta Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

Yes they do work different, I think you can just lock the throttle with a wee side button near handle? I would do as has been suggested. Tip saw and pull over til fuel stops passing out spark plug hole. Probably it's flooded of you've been pulling it over for a while. These saws are knackers and need to be pulled with conviction. It may help if you pull it over softly til you feel it nearly biting, then let the cord back in and give it a good heave. Watch your self as you'll be starting it with throttle lock and no chain brake. Generally if you can smell fuel out the exhaust you've flooded it. Sure you'll get it running once you get the technique. Did you have to pull it over for ages on choke before it fired? If you can get it to run with throttle lock on I would just let it do that for a bit til it's warmed up then click it off and let the revs fall slowly rather than straight down to idle. Also where did saw come from? Good luck Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

**** doesn't just fly round the sides if them? Look good Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

Horribley smelly and rub forehead after a really sweaty day

How quickly do people find the perspex glasses\goggles gey trashed when climbing? Never tried it but always get **** in my eye. When carving I use goggles both perspex and mesh kind but mesh is irritations nd perspex always steams up\scratches. Any magic solutions? Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

Yup seal ends. What might you use them for? Hard to say what thickness to mill them if you have no idea what they for..I wouldn't bother leaving them in woods until lighter. You will need some stickers for storing yet boars though. If I have enough idea what I will do With them I mill at 10ft long ish and between 1 3/4inch and 3inch. Watch for shake in end grain and mill accordingly. Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

I don't wear no gloves, feel like I can't do things properly with gloves on and get on my nerves. Good for thorns though. Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

Worth having a good shop about before you do courses also, seems to be a huge variation in price and some places have part funding/grants (unsure if still the case). Also well worth having someone take you out for a bit climb before doing your climbing ticket as some folk quickly realise that working from ground suits them very much better. Enjoy it!

Alaskan should come with a a few spare nuts. Do not overnighter, being stainless/ally they thread easy. Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

Where are you milling? If at home\in yard just give it a pop, if out in middle of woods, I would start it up, check it idles ok, clean air filter, check spark plug colour and gap (coffee brown not white) ideally cross cut some big butts check it's going ok.

Great, it'll be fine and you'll have fun, and remember chainsaw milling is slow, loud, fumey, fuelly, and heavy at best. Worth staying ontop of keeping chains sharp, hacking dirty bark off(I i use an old adze) and wedging as you go down a board.and get set up with rails and ladder right also.have fun 075 will be a good saw, just not the absolute best possible option. Better than 056. Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

I would sell mine if I wasn't milling or cross cutting oversize timber tbh. Alot of other lighter saws out there for the odd bit of cross cutting. They are good though, but for what they are worth s/h you could a get a decent 60/70/80 cc saw and have a wedge of change in back pocket.

That is sweet, I have only tried this with a 361 for fencing, shall have to give it a go

Yeah just re read that post, I mean I was disappointed at how much worse the 076 was. I love them they are class saws, and I had hoped that the newer ones weren't as good! Will be milling with 084 always now unless second saw needed on other end. Has been reliable though and can still get parts for 076

Sounds like a perfect holiday Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app

I was pretty disappointed how much better my 084 is compared to my 076. Sent from my C6603 using Arbtalk mobile app
