Thanks for all the help guys, got in touch with TCD 👍

I had thought about Timber cutter, if anyone knows how to contact him that would be very helpful. I will put up a picture tomorrow, the access is pretty decent and maybe a tirfor would work.. will give it some thought! Thanks

Hi there, got quite a large ash tree that has died from ash die back that needs felling. It's in a wooded area behind a house and can be dropped in one but the base looks pretty rotten and I believe it could fall in any direction. Is there anyone around the Moretonhampstead area on Dartmoor with a tractor and winch that can get it on the ground safely for me? Much appreciated, Will

That would be most appreciated - thank you! If you have any luck drop me a PM I wont be trading in this saw any time soon!!

Thanks Shavey - it's good hear from someone with first hand experience of the saw. Your 603 looks good, annoyingly mine doesn't have the decompresson valve - bit hard on the shoulders!

Yeah, I guess that could be the way to go if I can't find an original muffler. I suppose something like the muffler from a stihl ms 660 or Husqvarna 395xp may be a good starting point for modifying...

Thanks for that Spud, most helpful! Do you think i'd still be able to get a muffler from Solo or would it be a discontinued part?

I've just picked up a Solo 603 saw, never had any experience with one before but at 103cc it seems to be a bit of a beast! Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be much information on the web about this particular saw though. Does anyone know where I can find a manual for it or at least the rpm settings for tuning? Also I'm missing the muffler for it, I believe the same muffler is also fitted to the Solo 670, 680 and 690 so I thought I’d just ask on the off chance that someone happens to have one lying around! Anyway it would be interesting to get some opinions about the saw!

Great, thanks Steve!

Just bought another ticket but only just noticed it's gone midnight - got an email with the ticket but did this go through the system or was I too late?

Only an hour to go :thumbup:

Thanks for the suggestions - managed to get a local plant hire company to move it for a very reasonable price!

Thanks Paul - hadn't thought of that!

I'm needing to move a MEWP from Corsham in Wiltshire to Newbury in Berkshire. I was planning on getting a friend to help me shift it but it turns out he can only tow 2000kg on his trailer - the MEWP weighs just over 3000kg. The machine itself isn't that big in size but it seems the weight is proving a problem. So can anyone recommend a haulage company (ideally reasonably priced and local) that could transport this for me - I've contacted a couple but they only have huge low loaders that are a massive overkill (and expensive). Thanks in advance!

Thanks Al - I understand the client is very pleased with what you've done!
