  1. I was looking at that one but I think the lack of a rotating spout is putting me off
  2. Thanks Les. I’d be interested to hear. The wear is where the ascender is on the ankle strap not the foot strap. I can understand why they don’t supply as you have to stitch the ends once it’s on the ascender so not easy really for the user to just fit another. Have a look you have to cut the strap to get it off.
  3. Here’s one... https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F202380734738
  4. Sorry mate it’s not. That goes under the foot not round the ankle.
  5. Finally got round to replacing the strap for those interested. Bought a Lyon sling of similar size. 30 mins on a sowing machine later...
  6. have you got a photo ken?
  7. Decent undercut and then matching top cut. A 200t on a 12’ cut should keep up if keep sharp and full throttle. If long then do in two. Will help get your eye in and experience up anyway. Sometimes with the risk of getting saw stuck there is a tendency to pull saw out too early and then limb won’t fall nice and flat.
  8. Why can’t you use the bridge that’s on there?
  9. A quick carb clean usually makes all the difference. 10mins when you know how....
  10. Hi Spud Just for clarity do you mean some pressure to the vent from inside the oil tank or from the outside, under the chain buffer? Cheers
  11. Thanks a lot. I'll check it out.....can't quite see what else could be the problem....it draws oil but very slowly
  12. Wondering if the oil tank has a vent that could get clogged? Or does it rely on the pump pulling oil through?

    The breather may have snapped off entirely. It happens regularly ime
  14. Thanks
  15. On a London Plane....
  16. Thanks for all the comments - good to learn some more about the 200
  17. Thanks. Inside looks fine but it’s getting replaced anyway....
  18. Thanks Spud. Sprocket shagged?! How much wear would you allow then...?
  19. Yeah I agree about the springs - doesn’t look like much life in them at all!
  20. Fair point [emoji106]
  21. The wear on the sprocket is visible (but minimal) but I suspect you would say to change?
  22. but what do you think of the drums...they look worn but not excessively so....
  23. Thanks for the info.... taking the clutch apart the springs are pretty close to the end....
  24. Have been putting some tlc into the 200 this weekend and was replacing the sprocket and had a close look at the clutch and it looks quite worn where the springs go through even though working fine....see pic attached Assume I should replace? Is there anything else I should have a look at seeing as I’m ordering parts? Thanks in advance
