  1. Hi mark really good points to check out, thanks. Yeah I totally forgot to mention that the chain spins on idle and was doing so a few days before it totally clonked out. Is there a specific reason why that would happen or could it be multiple reasons?
  2. Thanks for the advice everyone will take a look tomorrow at what you have all advised and see if I can get to the bottom of it
  3. Hi. I'm having problems with my 201. The saw starts fine with the bar and chain off but as soon as I put it back on it seems to be playing up. If I get the started and put the chain brake on, the saw turns off. Also a fair bit of tension on the pull cord when bar and chain on. Cover , bar and chain defiantly on right. Saw seemed to be slowly cutting out before all this. Any advice? Video added for more info. Thanks PXL_20230822_110812019.TS.mp4
  4. ‘’The 16mm is easy to hand hold (especially good for tensioning/lifting light bits) and tolerates natural crotching andbranch/trunk friction well. ‘’ I don’t know what you mean when you say, “16mm shouldn’t take that much friction.” sorry I must have misread you there. I see now you’ve mentioned it being a three strand rope. thanks again.
  5. Great info AHPP thanks. We used the stein RC 2000, Teufelberger Sirius 14mm, DMM 200kN Impact block pulley and a DMM Pinto Rig pulley for re-directs. The majority of my work was done with a re-direct as opposed to natural crotch rigging though I had assumed it would have caused a lot of rope friction without one. Now that you’ve mentioned a 16mm shouldn’t take that much friction, it’s good info to know.
  6. Yeah good point about the crotch rigging. I think I will invest in a decent re-direct too. Thanks again, much appreciated
  7. What you on about ill-experienced? I’m here asking questions to learn and your giving me an off topic response.
  8. Hi all. looking to buy rigging kit as I’ve just recently got my ticket. I’m looking for a decent set up which can take medium/large loads and will last a while. So far I was thinking of getting: DMM 200kN Impact block pulley Gleistein HeavyGreen 16mm English braid multi-sling (16mm x 5m) Stein RC2000 capstan I’m a bit confused on the size of capstan sling. It’s working rigging rope is 16mm so would this be the same for the sling? Also will be buying a redirect, rigging carabiners and sling on top of that I just didn’t add it in. Thanks
  9. Thanks Mick. So you use a different type of grease for the flywheel bearings compared to the other 3 points?
  10. Hi folks. What type of grease would you recommend using for my forst chipper? thanks
  11. Hi. Anyone know what type of oil a predator 360 takes? Thanks
