Stubby`s on it, torque turns wheels. HP is pub talk to impress mates Edit. Torque and where its made in the rev range are where you need to be looking. Torque is worthless if you need to scream the nuts off an engine to achieve it. Bob

If the winch rope is spooled to run under the drum through the spades it will pull the tractor into the ground. If the rope is spooled to come over the top of the drum and spades the tractor will flip. Bob

There are some oldies in there Johny, a lot of those big old XP Huskys have not been used for donkeys years , I fueled them up and with a few pulls they were away. Our lads wont use them because they are heavy by todays standards so I am going to flog a load of them. Bob

I bought and paid for this Stihl ms 390 chainsaw | eBay The guy went to get it out of his lockup and it was gone, that or he didnt want to sell it. I did get the refund. Bob

HSE have plenty of cases like this where they have prosecuted for dangerous working practices. This is an extreme case but an indication of the tools they have at hand, unlikely they would go for it just for the top handle though.

No its not against " the Law " because there are none regarding the use of saws. We have HSE and industry standard guidelines that forbid the use of them, within the industry and on commercial contracts the use of a top handle on the floor would invariably get the operator or even the main contractor slung off the job. Should an injury occur because of the use of one these saws on the ground some insurers may decline a claim. For private work sweet FA applies. Bob

I know the OP is not Happy I dont know which one he is either but surely he could go into somewhere like FR Jones and get a better fitment. Ordering stuff that you have not tried on invariably ends in disappointment. Bob

So there`s the last stick that wont quite go through the chipper and the groundsaws are in the truck 50mts away but the climbers saw is just sat there winking at you............ Edit. You are right of course. Bob
-
Is there anyone here that they can say hand on heart that they have never used a top handle saw on the ground?? I wont hang around for a reply Bob

Come on then Jon, 40 minutes have past so what have you been up to?. I dont want to know about the mucky stuff between you and Sonia Bob -
Its probably the right choice of machine Big J, the modern equivalents are full of electronic trickery that lock out at the slightest sniff of something too heavy. I used a newish JCB on site recently and it was pathetic compared to old our school FDI, buzzers and lights flashing all over the place, then refusing to move until you play fair Bob
