i agree with you mate and hear you i hear the same thing day in day out i had a job in falkirk same thing guy charged her £150 to cut max 6 branches all butchered and a mess as i was already doing a job next door and she asked for my opinion i tidyed the job up at no cost. what i did get was her sons number and a good sized job out of it so karma does pay off too many muppets about the now.

as the title says ill start. for my main tree work is my ms200t with a 14inch bar, also when in the trees for bigger stuff I use my old and very trusty,husky 42special I have two of these both made in 1998 and cut and run like a dream my new addition is a husky 455 rancher with a 20inch bar and to be honest its not a bad saw. im looking at getting a couple more sthil saws but undecided as im a husky man really I would also like to add that im a very small company and only have me and one trusty groundy. thanks all

hi mate sitrep with the saw I took the carb apart and inspected all the faces diaphrams and holes all looked good now I have two dogs and two ponys but while checking one of the diaphrams I noticed a hair now it could have blown off my jumper ??? any way I also inspected the small flutter valves and noticed the throttle one had a small nick in it so I gently smoothed it off with my finger nail I then put everything back together and tried to start it after a few pulls on the warm setting she burst into life and idled very fast so I adjusted the idle so as it wouldn't make the chain go around it purred along the shed floor quite the thing so I then cut some scrap wood outside the shed to get it warm switched it off and on a few times still purring I think the low speed is a bit fast but its going any advice on setting the low revs would be great hopefully that's the thing fixed failing that im going to cry lol
-
