Which part do you need exactly? I have plenty of saws back in stock now so I could have a look at pulling the part of a new machine.

It can be all over the place with uk stock. If it isn't in stock here it usually takes two weeks to two months for it to arrive from Japan. I will check out your email and let you know what we and the UK importer have in stock. Although I am having a day off tomorrow, home schooling the kids which will be fun, 🙄 so it could be Thursday before I get a chance to get back to you.

😆 Oh I don't know, any publicity is good publicity right?

Unfortunately from Monday 11/01/2021we are having to close the shop to walk in customers. We are still operating our click and collect service but manning the phones is an issue so it is best to email over any enquires to [email protected]

You cheeky barstewards. De dont talk like we do dont de do lar.... And there's me using my best posh voice on the phone and everythink, wont bother from now on. Good luck on getting charged for a pair of Pfanner trousers instead of a brake band from now.

My old boss showed me that trick, works a treat! A blower was always an essential item, I just wouldnt do the job without one.

We sell quite a lot of the brake bands but then they are the same band for the 550xp mark 1 and 2 and the 560xp/562xp plus a couple of other non pro saws. It could possibly be a bad batch as a month of use on all machines doesnt sound too good tbh although I havent had any complaints on this happening this quick on the mark 2 550.

As already mentioned most dont use the guard with the mulcher blades. Apparently the three pronged ones dont spray the mulch about as much but do need a bit more power. Both oregon mulcher blades are available 3 or 4mm thick.

Sorry I completely missed this mention. Looks like the OP is now sorted, the jet fit heads are a little known really good product. They seem to take a good battering.

I had a 550xp mark 2 with a badly installed crank seal (pushed in too far so wore out and started leaking). I'm fairly sure it had the same symptoms as yours. Ive had one with a dodgy coil which failed after a couple of weeks, another with a dodgy carb picked up on pdi and one with a slightly leaky oil pump. Less to do with the saw in general more a quality control at manufacturing if that makes any sense. I must say feedback is that the saw is really good and the customers who have had the problems still love the machine, once fixed of course Hope you get it sorted soon.

At 100:1 I would want to be very accurate with the mix! I would guess there would also be performance gains in using that ratio as when I get a saw in that uses 25:1 they run terrible. Someone has to brave enough to try it, Stubby....

NP but dont just listen to me ESS has had different experiences which I dont doubt. My experience has been with only a couple of saws ive used that have had the tensioner missing, once tighten up the bar didnt move. I am fairly sure this issue has cropped up on the forum before on a different model of machine. It could be worth a search.

Just a quick update on the situation. Clothing can be tried on in store but there are some restrictions. The changing room cannot be used so footwear, jackets, t shirts etc over clean clothing is OK. Getting tired of asking people to use a face covering though? If you cant or wont please order online and choose store pickup please. As we are restricting the amount of people allowed in the shop at one time please call in to buy rather than browse or ask questions about products. We can answer questions over the phone or through email. All the above just helps us serve you more efficiently. Opening hours are 10:00-17:00. We are hoping these hours will return to normal soon.

As previously mentioned the chain tensioner doesnt do anything once the bar nuts are tightened up. It's either that the bar isnt being clamped properly for some reason, its an oiling issue or a poor quality chain/bar IME. I would check its oiling correctly and go from there.

You get a couple of hi viz stripes, what more do you want for £200 ? We just copied and pasted the description from the manufactures site, I did think it looked a bit silly tbh. On the plus side with this new design of trouser if you do need a rail track spec trouser you can just change the skin. They would of been handy during our powerline work days when a new pair of trousers would be ruined within a day due to climbing barbwire fences. Barbwire fences crossing farmers fields to do some honest work, not climbing a barbwire fence to steal something before some chimes in. ?

No feedback sorry as this item is too new but have a look at these. They aren't chainsaw protective unless you use the baselayer Arbortec Arborflex Skin - Storm Black SKYLANDEQUIPMENT.COM The Black storm skin is fully waterproof which can be worn as a stand-alone hi-visibility trouser or you can attach an...

I can't remember much but I do remember owd nells tavern Guy's Thatched Hamlet | 'Owd Nells Canalside Tavern WWW.GUYSTHATCHEDHAMLET.COM Our famous thatched country tavern situated on the Lancaster Canal serves a... I hope everyone who I trained with is doing well. Nick, Neil and Rick who taught us were really good blokes.

Thanks for the feedback.? Hopefully the search on our site will improve in time, it's far better than the one on the old site.

Only arbortec do women's chainsaw trousers AfAIK. Moving up to class 2 is going to restrict your choice of trousers even more. Most class 2 trousers are horrible, I certainly wouldn't want to wear them. The issues of fatigue would soon outweigh any 'benefits' of wearing class 2 trousers . As a bit of a shout out, is anyone outside of the UK wearing class 2 trousers?

I had a customer bring a fairly bad one in. He had replaced about 5 starter pulleys which kept going because of the flywheel rubbing on the casing like you say. I bodged it up as he didnt want to go down the expensive route but it didnt last too long, really needed a new housing and crankcase. He bought a husky t525 in the end.

Thanks, and thanks for checking it out along with the feedback. We will hopefully have a clearance/end of line section up within the next few weeks, we are having to undertake a full stock check as products, stock and descriptions didnt move from the old site to the new site smoothly as we would have liked! This is one reason why so many items are out of stock on the site when we do have them in stock plus some products seem to be missing. The joys of technology? The layout of the site will stay more or less as it is but we will improve the product filters and expand some of the categories to make browsing easier, hopefully. If I could ask yourself and anyone else who would like to answer a question, do you mainly use the search bar or go through the categories when looking for a product, or is it a even mix of the two?

Our walk in shop has now been open for the last two weeks. I would just like to take this opportunity to express the restrictions we have had to put in place for the safety of our customers and our staff. Only one customer is allowed in the shop at any one time. Hand sanitiser is provided so please use. Face coverings are mandatory by law and we are adhering to these guidelines. If you do not have a mask we have disposable masks for purchase (£1) Staff will be wearing a face covering and we expect customers to do the same unless they are exempt. If you cannot wear a face covering if possible please order online or call us on 0151 345 9971 to place an order which we can arrange for a store collection. Clothing, boots and harnesses cannot be tried on in store, they must be purchased first. If that after taking the item home you find that the fit isnt correct then you can exchange the item at no additional cost as long as it isn't soiled, damaged, used or has had any tags removed etc. These are difficult times for us all. Although we know it can be frustrating for customers it is also frustrating for us too but the abuse our staff have received over the last couple of weeks is inexcusable. Please adhere to the guidelines as it will help us to serve you quicker and more efficiently.

We finally have our new site online. Skyland Equipment - Arborist & Rope Access. Tel: +44(0) 151 345 9971 SKYLANDEQUIPMENT.COM Suppliers of arborist equipment, chainsaws, chainsaw boots, arborist climbing ropes, harnesses, carabiners and... Any feedback good or bad is always welcome.

I'm sorry to hear that Matty. End user customer feedback should always be a priority to manufactures as its you that matter, especially with a high end product. I will let them know that it is a concern that should be looked at.

Its a pity they changed the buckles, worth sending Teufelberger some feedback as the more people complain the more chance is they will do something about it. I guess they had complaints that it was too difficult to adjust the buckles as a few customers did mention that to me. If I mention it to them its just one complaint, its far better if end users feedback direct to manufactures en mass, especially since its not the cheapest harness about!
