Its only £6.50 from amazon The Life of a Tree : Lescure, Island, Demont, Marie: Amazon.co.uk: Books WWW.AMAZON.CO.UK The Life of a Tree : Lescure, Island, Demont, Marie: Amazon.co.uk: Books

Buy that! It is way under cost price. It looks like its the mark 1 but its still a massive bargain. Its a detuned 560xp

I would try running the machine at tick over on the ground then moving/twisting the handle, engine housing, shaft, throttle handle etc looking for a wire shorting out somewhere.

I bought this book a couple of years ago for my eldest. Its definitely worth buying as the kids love it. A great little stocking filler purchase for this time of the year.

Thats a really good tip from Matty. I did the same when the 57dl chains weren't available off the shelf. If you drill the bar you can use 56 or 57 dl chains.

But this Stihl Guidebar Mini E 1/4 SKYLANDEQUIPMENT.COM The combination of this particularly narrow guide bar with the 1/4" Picco chain (designed especially for cordless chainsaws and the MS 150 / MS151 ), offers considerable savings in... And this Stihl Chain Picco Micro 3 (PM3) - 1/4 SKYLANDEQUIPMENT.COM Only available from Stihl in 1/4" .043 (1.1mm) gauge sized chain, Designed for the MS150, MS151 & MS161T this chain is fast and cutting and leaves a very smooth clean cut. Guide... Not necessarily from us but the above combo work well with the 2511

This is the part number for the s119D 1139 120 0601 As long as the throttle linkage looks the same it should be OK. The differences are usually a change of throttle cable hence the fittings may be different or the H and L screws, limiters caps, type of tuning screwdriver required etc. As above, rowencarbs are really good and will be able to help you out.

Try chainsawbars.co.uk. Rob will make 60dl loops up.

Definitely check with the warranty details if doing it yourself.

I was thinking that a worn drum might 'allow' the clutch to explode. The clutches ive had in that have cracked have been contained by the drum so no big drama. Sounds nasty Mr Newton, your reactions must be just too fast! When your old like me you would just watch it spin off and disappear. Although I wont go into that as the last time I mentioned it I got told off. As Mr Bolam said the stihl bar and chain setup is really popular on the 2511. When I get a chance we will start selling the saw with that setup. Especially since the price of a new echo 1/4" bar is around the £70 mark.

Plenty of good advice above. The Honda doesn't look too expensive at all. I would replace the engine rather than trying to get it repaired unless you know a decent mechanic but im sure that the kohler parts will still be available. You may need to check the pulley that connects the engine to the cutting disk and I'm not sure how the hydraulics work on those machines but I'm sure timberwolf or a timberwolf dealer can advise you. I've replaced engines on a few chippers and stump grinders in the past, it isnt that difficult to get it done.

I've seen a couple of really knackered clutches that have split but none have exploded. Usually the clutch springs weaken or snap which causes the chain to turn at idle with the chain brake off, the engine dies at idle with the chain break on or they get hard to start. If you do have a broken clutch spring replace all of them at the same time, don't skimp on replacing just the one. The stihl 150/151 200/201 are prone to wear on the clutch where the springs attach to it. If you can see a bit of a grove in the locating hole then it may be time to replace the clutch. You will find out that if you replace the springs and they dont last very long then the clutch is probably on the way out. One last thing, whether its stihl or husky make sure you get the correct springs as they both have a habit of updating the clutch mechanism which usually requires different springs, they can look the same but they may have 1 more or 1 less coil on the spring.

I suggest contacting the dealer you bought it from. It may be out of warranty but all PPE manufactures want feedback if there is an issue with one of their products.

Good find, I hope the OP has this sorted out now.

I think that you need these screws. V805-000240 We sell the spikes with the screws but they only come as a package.
