  1. Spud @spudulike was right! Tiny piece of bark trapped behind LA screw on carb of 150 was causing it to rev high on idle!! Tiny blast with air line and its perfect again
  2. Just wondered what accounts app people are using? Basically something to create customer files, track mileage, send and track invoices, snap receipts, calculate VAT etc. The 2 that seem to come up first are Quickbooks and Freshbooks. Freshbooks claims to be better for service based businesses. Basically I am looking for an app that will get rid of paper and: easily crate new customer file, allow quotes to be written and sent on site, track jobs until payment, record expenses and allow easy quarterly and end of year tax calculations to be made. Any one found a really good, simple and functional one for small tree surgery companies?
  3. As above. Saw starts fine but will only run at high revs from the start (without touching throttle). Any ideas what is wrong and how to fix?
  4. Just got a 550 XPG II. Haven't used a 550 for 3 years. Is the gap between the clutch cover and main body normal? Photos show with and without Sugi bar. Gap just doesn't look quite right. Also, what's the current advice for running a new auto-tune in?
  5. Off topic slightly, but interestingly surgeon in french is chirurgien. Good luck on your job hunt
  6. Do you have a link to the video?
  7. Thanks David. Any chance the tree could recover next year? It is part of a mature ash avenue and this tree leans towards a nice old building. Will try to get a slice of the fruiting body.
  8. Recently emerged following a lot of rain after a drought summer here in SW France. And in the words of the Mamas & Papas "all the leaves are brown".
  9. Hi - have sent email
  10. Hi Just wanting to hear from any arborists/firms working/employing in Scandinavia this winter. Any tips or job opportunities really appreciated. I'm based in France and miss the snow (not constant sideways 2°C Scottish sleet). I'll be in Stockholm for new year and would like to stay on for a bit - freelancing etc. +12 years arb experience in 4 countries. Cheers Finn
  11. Mind it needs a different sprocket. I like this bar and chain on the 2511 so thought I'd try on the husky
  12. Exactly what happened.
  13. Holes looked pretty smashed up - looks like a 12—sided imperial allen has been used in the past ?. Failing that, my local garage can have a crack with their welder..
  14. Anyone know what the hex size is for these bolts? Order sheet said Lopro 1 3/4" (GM-LP-134). Guess they are American not metric? Also any useful tips on replacing pockets would be useful. Cheers
  15. Cheers all, weighed it up and going to give it a miss. Cons outweigh the pros
  16. Tree fallen through old garage roof. Is this asbestos? Walk away from the job? It's going to break up further during tree removal so perhaps not worth quoting for. Thoughts..
  17. genius
  18. Any one know what size and length the kask euro adapter (for headphones) screw size are? Need one (a few) in a hurry in France...
  19. pretty sure that's what I had in Jan 2017, when I saw the result of the presidential election in the US
  20. Cool, hoping they die now that wood is stickered and stacked. Noticed a few live ones. Rather not use chemicals if poss
