the husky is 35volts. the oregen say it will cut for 2 hours on full chat how many run a saw non stop for 2 hours. not used one interested in using one. ideal for cutting small limbs as only a 10inch bar with small pico chain. oregen does have a self sharpener included. so getting near ground if you hit the ground you can resharpen it in 5 seconds

i looked at getting a dolmar/makita. try and find a dealer in hampshire who keep them on the shelf to look at and if poss try. only firm who sell them is elliots tool station and they sell all the building gear so what do they know about a chainsaw. nout. can get one. looked on there site at models that looks the one rang Elliots could not find it no longer made came up with a different saw. can get one. can you get one to look at no sir. we do not normally stock them now can you see why people go for husky or sthil when they are stocked those who stock them have the parts on shelf. have looked at other makes but yet to find one which weight the same as a 550. all heavier. if you can find me a dealer in hampshire who has them on shelf then i would retract my comments

our polly tunnel gets very hot in summer so much so it will burn any plant in there unless you shade it so for drying timber make a good job and fairly cheap to make just needs some iron hoops and high grade plastic.

what you say sounds right under bark is wavy white spore like lines so it is ded. what happens to larva and beetle in winter do they live in the tree. and is there no chemical you can use to spray to kill the critters off one of the trees is just getting to a nice size. i hate to see it get this. would winter tar oil sprayed on trunk stop them.

try a husky and you will never want to go back to a old type harness. has so many fitments will fit most people. i strim in summer 7 hours a day 5 days a week with husky not tired with normal know i have had a 40cc strimmer by my side
-
spoke to my heating engineer and he said no way he would do it. as other posts check if he has done one or two lot more to it than just plumbing it in. in the end it is a glorified steam engine.

after 2014 if you wish to drive a comercial truck 7.5tonnes or over you need to do a CPC. if you are pulled over after that date without this then they can throw the book at you. you can do it as a three day course. then a refresher believe every 3 years. it has made my job a bit of a pain as if i want to hire a truck to do a job can not. so will have to include lorry and operator into costs

need a little info and help south norfolk council
hedgesparrow replied to littlerob's topic in Trees and the Law
if your friend owns the wood then you need to get hold of the TPO officer at the council arrange a site visit show the trees and if he is agreement that they are unsafe and need felling will give you the paperwork to go ahead. no need to get hold of the leader he will just pass it on and it will end up as bio waste in local incinerator this is the link for them http://www.south-norfolk.gov.uk/.../Planning-application_form_15.pdf -
what size is the hedge girth can you burn on site. you say need to clear 6mtr space how wide is hedge at present. have you any photos of job so we can look and give our opinion and can the digger not pull the brash back for you if it has to be cleared off site good 360 should be able to pull it back to then dump in a truck

i can see its use with a long reach but with a strimmer it would get caught in the overhanging trees that a no of jobs i do have. but looks good just can not see it working for a no of jobs hence went for a normal harness. but more of a pro one
