Arbtalk Christmas Raffle 2012
Stubby replied to Steve Bullman's topic in Arbtalk Christmas Charity Raffle 2012
Hi Steve . Tickets bought + donation . Nice one bud ! -
As Chrisshrimp said . Left hand side of page -select motor vehicles.
-
Perishin' now the sun has gone down . Brrrrr
-
No experience of "clearview " but do have a "Burley" and would recommend that . Mine is rated at 98% efficiency .Worth looking at .
-
Its one of the chinese " Zomax" saws re badged / re painted to be what ever you want to call it . I call it a bag o shite !
-
Slightly over engineered so making it pretty much a bomb proof saw . Should last a life time if in good nick and kept that way .
-
Would say the same .

Ok . Both have had issues . I have a 560 that is fine now . It has had the following (under warranty) . Hotter spark plug , new updated carb , remap of auto tune . Then later a "tweek "by petmate390 on here . Known probs are pull start mech busting , rear av spring failing and some people experiencing hot start difficulties . Pull start hasd been modded I think , there is a new coil to aid hot start . Some may not have had these mods . One thing , the de comp pops out just with comression , even if it dose not fire ,so to help the pull start mech it is best to push the de comp in weather it fires or not . The ignition is on all the time which can cause people to flood it accidentally by putting the choke on . Once you get accustomed to it it is a stonking saw and I have never had better . 15" bar is perfect but will run an 18 ok .

A Sharp one ! Seriously though 400mm is about 15-16inches I think, so either of the above would do . you might want a bit more grunt on occasion but the trade off is the extra weight but if you are set up cross cutting off the ground in some sort of horse/jig or clamp then the extra weight is taken mostly by the log . son you could add 365 or 372 to that list .

Anyone with a large chainsaw mill in the Chichester area?

My cat is a George . All white with one green eye and one blue eye . Black bird could be singing if it was a bright moon . . I went to a filling station once at about 2.00am and there was a black bird singing because all the for court lights were on .

Spark unit to fly wheel gap too big/small Maybe a lead off ,Fly wheel key sheered putting it out of time ? Spark unit just plain failed ?
-
You godda use the decomp every time you pull it over , even if it does not fire . The decomp on mine pops out just from compression weather it fires or not .
-
Not yet ! Hopefully not again .
-
Yep I would say the same . As long as I can remember there has always been a fine oily dust in the throat of the intake I just put a bit of kitchen roll on my finger and wipe it out periodically.
-
Would that be Dave from Eastergate lane Walberton ?
-
Petemate390 can !
-
Don't know why TBH . I have High top filters on 372,390,and 395 . . Find they work well .
-
Still running the stock yellow one . on my second as I poked a hole in the first one Doh! Might try and get the "high top" filter housing from an American 562 and fit the heavy duty flock filter . All my big saws run them .
-
That's how I see it bud . Well said .
-
Far from perfect but it was a first attempt

Being a Willow it could still sprout again . Then you would have the perfect hide ! -
The least laborer intensive fire wood . Seasons quickly splits easy peasy lemon squeesy and burns a treat . Keep em all .
-
Bad news once again . Sorry to hear it bud . If I had my way I'd have thier hands off .

Stove going like a goodun in anticipation of going nippie over night tonight .
