That's ok, sorta comment id of made if boot was on other foot! Got spares for all other saws but the 560! Cant belive how many dif shapes and sizes are out there.

Nearest Husky dealer?[/quote

 

Not helpful when not in stock!!!😵

Where can I buy new neddle bearings for a 560xp, had a bit of dropsie when changing sprocket!

Going to order a sthil chain and try that, I've been using Oregon bpx and lpx love the full chisel speed!

Oiler turned rite up, just put new rim and newish 15inch bar on gona see how that goes!

Oregon sarp or Carlton chain had probs with all, last few Oregon have streched alot, what are your thoughts?

Wouldn't get out of bed and work for someone else for that money, maybe end up doing for myself sum days after brake downs etc.

Why does Douglas fir BLEED when brashing? And does it damage/make any differents to the timber?

What are the harvester like for hardwood?

Any 560 part floating about in that site????

To be fair Scottish Spruce is very very different to Scandinavian Spruce. Branches are much bigger and its very fury.

 

 

As for stumps that is just lazyness, double/triple cutting is hard so just take it a bit higher till the bar fits. Although its the same with hand cutters i can get a head lower to the ground than some hand cutter i know. Like everything in forestry its site site-spec and operator dependent

So its drivers and steering wheel attendents!!!

What about the height the head leaves the stumps??? Been in few woods lately having to tidy up stumps! More cost effective???

I don't know the answer. What I do know is when I used to be on a dig-up gang if we left to much mud/spoil on the road the LA would be all over us like a rash. Doesn't seem to be the same for farmers? I drive past a Sugar beet pad that is being used ATM, it's a mud-bath!.......Surely it can't be to much trouble to have a loading bucket or a couple of lads on shovels to have a tidy up.

Lads with shovels, mite not know what end to hold!

Why do first thinning have to be brashed up to 6' high? Something the head cant do???

I do see your point but surly not good for future of the forest!

I mean tree, but same goes for them farmer boys!

Tree harvester, mud and the way they leave places

Why do they leave so much mess????

seems to be plenty in sussex at the mo!!!!! more than ever,

especially when I was cutting along a river bank a few weeks back, cutting a hazle tot off and a dead alder pole fell out the middle which had a hornets nest in the end (unknown to me) after 12 stings I ran with them following me:thumbdown:

Thanks for the reply I'll take a look at them, where did you get them from??
