  1. Thanks shavey Iv'e found some parts cheap on a different model saw, but they look the same in diagram & *OIL PUMP ADJUSTMENT SET PS32 thing is only £1.20. plus P&P http://www.powertoolspares.com/tool/makita/spares-and-accessories-for-ea3201s/ea3201s/spares/ Worth a punt? Oil pump complete is listed fitting for both models here: https://www.kettensaegen-saegeketten.de/8782/oelpumpe-fuer-dolmar-motorsaege-ps-32-ps-35-ps-350-ps-420-ps-460-ps-500-ps-6100...-auch-fuer-makita-dcs-3500-dcs-3501-dcs-4300-dcs-4301... So is that the bit that may normally need replacing?
  2. I think the oil pump is knackered on my 420sc as its stopped oiling. Tried various things read on forums etc to unblock it but not luck. Anyone dismantled one to acess the oil pump, from reading the repair manual seems pretty complicated? Maybe it didn't like veg oil. I have being using it for about 3 yrs with veg oil. Also is the makita ea4300f the exact same saw in blue as the dolmar 420sc? Repair manual link: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/834167/Makita-Dcs3500.html?page=2#manual Why the need for new circlips?
  3. Won't you be hitting the tree roots with posts often so that will slow things down alot? Any pictures of what theese look like
  4. Any brands recommendations? The ones I tried were oregon yukon was thinking maybe others might have more room for my fat legs
  5. Hi do you wear theese with chainsaw protection trousers trousers tucked in or trousers over the top? Being working in a ankle deep swamp so went to but some to stop my leather boots getting wrecked. Only trouble is my sthil trousers won't fit over thew tops of them as boot to wide, & if I try tuck then in down the the tops of the wellies the don't fit under properly either,plus wellies will full with sawdust. Suppose i need a trousers with aslightly wider leg? Bootcut
  6. There are some really cheap ones on ebay all from one seller but they look abit dodgy maybe fakes some don't specify brand? Orange/Black Class 3 Chainsaw Guard Steel Toe Cap Wellington Boots (8772-UB) | eBay
  7. Will have to take some pictures, its running really well so far have a 13" bar on it so its cutting really well atm copicing overgrown hazel. Noticed it seems very economical with fuel. Bought it after reading all the good feeback of it on the german arb forums using google translate.
  8. Bought a little dolmar 420sc shipped over from from germany & its a nice saw can reccomend it. They sell the whole range: DOLMAR Kettensägen - RUBART
  9. Anyone using this & if so is it any good. Seems very cheap but there must be some catch. (apart it from the freezing bit) I googled it but can't find any feeback from people who are actually using it etc. For sale @ F R Jones and Son http://http://www.frjonesandson.co.uk/products-page/oregon/oils-lubricants-and-cleaners/oregon-arborol-plus-bio-degradable-5-litre-chain-oil/
