  1. I have been a big husky fan for a long time but had to get a replacement for a 372xp so was going to get a 572xp. But because husky cancelled the shops orders for some reason I tried a Stihl 462. I run a husky 562 and I don't use it now because and I hate to say it the Stihl 462 is a far better saw! It's alot lighter way more powerful and it is bloody rapid but so why pick a saw up that is heavier and with less power

  2. One side of the chain might be rubbing on the clutch. Had the same on my 562. It would cut straight for a bit then it would start to cut on the wonk so I would sharpen it then it would do the same again. The chain looks and feels sharp but if you look at the clutch side of the chain you will see a slight line where it's hitting the clutch. Had a friend who had four 560 and it's happened to them to. I would not of known it was that unless he did not say about it

  3. Ten quid for a loaf?..   you must be out your mind..
     
    I'm surprised you got 100 quid for a ton of wheat and only get 140 today mind..   still, it proves how much more efficient farming has become.. we should all tip our hat in that regard..
     
     
     
     
     
     
    The thing is the price of every thing else has gone up as well not just the price of a tractor.
  4. The engine wont be using all its power.

     

     

     

    If a tool needs 40hp at 540rpm that is all the tractor will supply. If the tool starts to bog down the tractor will up the power to try to keep it at 540rpm. If the tool bogs down too much the shear bolt will shear.

     

     

    If the tractor is say 70hp and is running at 540rpm which would be about 1900-2000 rpm It will be putting out about 60hp roughly. So if a mower need 20hp the tractor will still put out 60hp other wise you would be able to put a 150hp tractor on a implement that only been 50hp to run it you can do it but if you push it to hard you will ruin the implement

  5. It would not matter on size of bolt as if the sheer part of the pto yoke can take a m8 bolt you would not put a m6 in as it would potently damage the hole on the pto where you put the bolt through and if it stalls the tractor it would not damage the tractor as its no different to stalling it normally. if you look for the maker on the pto then do a search of the internet that might come up with the grade. Just to give you a idea though I run a big baler on a 200hp tractor and that has a m8 10.9 tensile strength bolt for the shear bolt but. A 8.8 bolt might also stretch rather then brake as the higher the tensile the more brittle they are. Sounds odd but but you can bend a 8.8 bolt but a 10.9 will brake before it bends as its a harder metal. But might be worth asking a ag dealer which Walterscheid or similar make if not sure
