  1. Don't leave cord out best is keep it tucked away moist my techni blades are in a sealable plastic box which i put the sponges in then some water. UV will make it brittle!
  2. Old dried fuel or cack inside could have been E5'd
  3. @spudulike Did you checker the Clacker valve also the Giggling pins?😅
  4. Abbotsbury Dorset! Caution Baby Swans! Err No Toxic Cygnets as due to them attracting masses of Swans the water in the Fleet is "Toxic" Beyond Ecological levels of toxins in water due to birds Shite! I will get down there to "nicely" edit signs with a black marker for them one day!!!!
  5. Hi either/Ivor both ways it will go along the bar/chain If wanted to tip it over so empties then pour some petrol etc in tank replace cap swill it around a bit then empty out see what crap comes out if still dirty inside repeat but leave it inside for longer but once drained leave cap off so dries petrol out as best can before filling with clean chain oil. You do get crap inside even if try to keep clean often it's that that makes it blacker.

  9. Bandits not Fussy with what metal it is it's shredded Bike frames and all! it don't fire it anywhere but out back on floor as rotates against travel as it's a transverse rotating bar with chains and boots hanging off it not spinning round like those newer shitey cheap things! Smart piece of kit that's robust and heavier ground drop down gears so you control it with revs and gears

  12. How much is the 545? only issues if been hanging around is shitty fuel ruining engine as friend bought a nice 343 that had sat for while had to go into dealer and have carb and bits replaced as fuel gums innards up and water in E5 ethanol causes issues hardens rubber parts. 555 is good also the Stihl 460/490/560 560 is the daddy for clearance with blades lots of grunt and blades work machines hard so always grease every day as the head can get dam hot! Clearing saws | STIHL GB WWW.STIHL.CO.UK What's the old Machine? can be worth repairing as a back up! As my friend found out when doing commercial need to have back ups and maintain kit not just leave when comes to winter then think about starting in new season then find Fooked up! Headed down to a site in Butt end of Cornwall both the Scythe mower and his brushcutter called it quits so a not just lost day but travelling twice. Now he listening! Back up strimmer, parts for scythe mower ie belts,decent fuel mix bottle and measure,plus taking to bits and cleaning mowers before storing away plus regular maintenance on all! along with tools etc to fix in field as best can.

  14. He knows all about the dangers out there! Nearly went down years back when got caught coming in in Solent east massive waves got up plus dealing with tide and cross wash where it comes back off land going into channel Hayling way when got swamped by some waves filled back of boat up luckily he had built it with a high step and closed door plus two fast bilge pumps got level down enough to get it moving so water went out through gunnels! Said was "Pretty close". Mind was out fishing one day could be someone Hooning a speed boat with skier pretty (Too)close in off Selsey way there is a wreck! Knew tide was low looked at his mate and they both knew was close to the Tanks! Next thing Thwack Hooners lost engine ripped whole back of boat off!
