  1. If the house is on clay, don't think that removing the tree is a guaranteed solution. Removal of the tree could actually cause bigger issues. Google ground heave.
  2. I've got a 365 and I run a 20" and a 28" bar. Lots of people said that 28" is too big for it but I find it fine. I don't need it to cut super quick though. I intend to do the 372 mod at some point.
  3. Thanks I've been waiting for them to come back on. I have snapped one up.

    365xt loose pipe

    Thanks spud. I will try and get some pics to be sure. Any dea what could cause the idle revs to increase when the saw is tipped forward?
  6. When cleaning the air filter yesterday I noticed a rubber pipe not connected to anything in the air filter compartment The only place that I could see it could belong, is a blue plastic elbow visible from the rear handle end of the saw and coming from the tank. The pipe came through the bottom of the air filter compartment and I have now pushed it through another hole in the bottom and connected it to the blue elbow. Does this sound right, I hadn't noticed any running issues? I have now noticed that when idling, the revs will sometimes increase slightly when I point the saw bar down? This only happens occasionally. Any advice gladly received.
  7. I run a 15" bar on the 440. It feels like a nice length on the saw but if you try and use its full length it's slow going. Any logs over 12" and the 365 comes out.
  8. I have just looked in my manual which covers both 435 and 440. I was wrong they are both 40.9cc but the 440 is rated at 1.8kw where as the 435 is 1.6kw. My 440 has flippy caps and the manual also shows the 435 as having them. The oil pump is not adjustable.
  9. I've got a 440. It's a nice little saw. The 435 and 440 are almost identical except the 440 has a few more cc's. A friend of mine has a 435 that has the tool less chain tensioner but I prefer mine with the standard tensioner.
  10. I have got a 28" bar for my 365. The saw pulls full comp chain reasonably well but I fancy trying it on skip chain. Does anyone know where I can buy 3/8 .058 92 Dl chain?
  11. Excellent, will they be on the website when in stock?
  12. No, a blow torch will damage the slate. I tried it once on an offcut when I was looking for ways to clean something off of a roof slate.
  13. Thanks for the suggestions, I will pass them on.
  14. I am looking for someone who can do tree inspections in North East Hampshire, Alton to be precise. I have some friends with a 4 acre field that is surrounded by trees and then roads or a public path. Many of the trees are of a large size with tpo's on them. If anyone can help let me know and I will pass on the details.
  15. Can you get 15" .325 .050 Sugihara bars, either solid or pro light? I want one for my husqvarna 440.

    Holly tree

    I have just felled a holly tree with a diameter at the base of around 20". I have cut and split it all, I was wondering how long it's likely to need before it's ready to burn?

    Which Saw

    I recently got a new saw, I looked at 550's and 560's but I couldn't get past my phobia of technology. I'm sure they are fine saws but in the end went for a 365 and I am very pleased with it. Only downside is whether it would be too big for you?
  18. Thanks for your reply. Woodland in the South east seem to be costing around 10k an acre.
  19. I am looking to buy a small woodland to spend time in as a hobby. I'm probably looking at up to 4 acres in the north Hampshire area. I have been keeping an eye on right move, woods4sale and woodlands.co.uk. I was just wondering if anyone knew of other places I should be looking? Thanks
  20. What a tempting offer.
  21. I very much doubt it is a fake, I bought it from my local husky dealer, forest and arb.
  22. My recently purchased 365 has got a different style bar to that I have seen/had before. It has got black lettering rather than the usual blue. I was wondering if there is any reason for this or have they simply ordered a vat of the wrong coloured ink? [/url]
