The applications most of us are talking about is to have permitted work done on a TPO tree , not to have the TPO removed .
-
Aspen pop has a totally different bark to that shown . Aspen has silver birch colored bark with sorta diamond marks on it . . The bark on this tree looks like Goat Willow but not seen one quite that big .
-
You don't have to have the TPO removed to be able to work on the tree . You do have to get the ok from the local tree officer . He might say no or he might say a 15% reduction or some other spec . You need to apply .

6 degrees at the moment but going up to 17 later .

You don't really need the sign . 🙂

Not wrecking it , just making it usable by making it the right length or am I missing something vital here ?

I just thought he is going to have to break it anyway to make it the right length so .....

We will all cover our eyes and you count to a hundred ......

I think it may be trial and error . There probably is a formula using distance between centers of drive sprocket and nose sprocket but you will have to " break " the new chain you can then add some tie straps , drive links and cutters with out actually spinning the rivets , just assembling it until you get a suitable length . ( then count the total drivers and write it down somewhere ! )

Sycamore / Birch root removal to prevent regrowth

If your budget runs to a stump grinder that's the way to go . -
I actually heard some twat on the radio saying it today .....

Some sensitive sites like SSSI and water course sites won't allow anything else .

Martin Lewis has said its bollox several times and explained it several times .

Might be a stiff tie strap or two or chain kinked slightly . Try backing off the chain tension a bit and see if it runs freely .

Nice one ! Mine had her gearbox removed a few weeks back to avoid just that . Hope she continues to improve Doug .

Yep I think you are not pushing it forward hard enough . There should be some initial resistance and then an audible " click " and the band will snap on . Probably needs to be on the saw to do it unless you can clamp the whole assembly to the bench with a G clamp or similar .

Never liked hard nosed bars . Sprocket nosed are available for your Stihl .....

This is the bit that is frack to bunt . Normally you push ( with the back of your wrist ) the handle away from the saw body ( toward the bar ) and this engages the brake . You then pull it back toward you to disengage the brake . As said something is worn/assembled wrong .

Once I get to 36" I use .404 pitch .
