Does it pull the 20" bar when the whole bar is in wood OK?

Yes I have used one and thought it was OK. Much better the the 362. Never tried it on a 20" bar though..

I'm in the market for a new saw, the use will be felling on a 20" bar, felling cuts only predominantly as I use small saws to sned. The 2 options I see are: Echo 621sx- £819 Inc Vat. Husqvarna 562xp Mk2 (or mk1?)- £819 inc Vat, this is on Radmorr tucker, doesn't specify mk1 or 2 and 18" bar not 20"? The stihl MS462 was considered, however its more monies and I already have a 460, soon to be ported so no need for this saw to run a big bar and keen to save the money. So I am after some input from others, which of those would you recommend or is there overs I've missed?

Do they not get taken down in the normal way on hexa chains?

Hi. Does anyone have a taz lov2 sitting unused they'd like to sell on? Thanks

Some that point the spike slightly forward towards the toe rather than straight down for me..

Hi, I'm wandering if anyone has any broken 500's? I'm in need of an injector module only. Thanks

6.6 Anyone proposing to cut down a tree under this exemption is advised to give the LPA five days' notice before carrying out the work, except in an emergency. Anyone who is not sure whether the tree falls within the exemption is advised to obtain the advice of an arboriculturist. This is from that document which uses the word advised.

That could be good reasoning for it yes. But is it a legal requirement to give 5 days notice?

A private estate. My understanding is that is all that is needed. The tree is exempt, and therefor not covered by a TPO, therefor carry on. The photos are an obvious thing to take many of to provide evidence should you be questioned on it

Yes I had seen this, It then led me to look in the T&CPA to try and find out where it actually states this is a requirement but I could not see it

Yes I understand it may be deemed polite to keep the TO in the loop. I am still wanting to find the exact wording as I would like to know if the notice is actually required or not.

I have a big dead tree over multiple gas tanks to remove the tree has a TPO(group). This is now exempt as it is both dead and dangerous, no lesser work apart from removal is adequate. My questions are: Is a 5 day notice actually required and still a thing? it seems pointless as the tree is exempt from the TPO so it's coming down regardless. Where in the T&CPA does it discuss exemptions and how to deal with them, I have looked through and cannot see, perhaps I am overlooking it? I have taken my information so far from memory and the following link: Paragraph's 60 & 79. /assets/static/govuk-opengraph-image-dade2dad5775023b0568381c4c074b86318194edb36d3d68df721eea7deeac4b.png Tree Preservation Orders and trees in conservation areas - GOV.UK WWW.GOV.UK Explains the legislation governing Tree Preservation Orders and tree protection in conservation areas. Thanks Josh

cutting it at 10' would just mean loads of growth starting at 10'. if you want low down density, the cuts need to be made low down. 3 options 1. Coppice it 2. Lay it 3. Thin it, remove the thickest stem right down low, repeat every year or 2

Leaves in gutters etc is not a reason to remove/prune a tree. Just clean your drain/gutters out. And no there is no right to light. The tree owner does not have to announce they are carrying out work to neighbours. All neighbours do have the right to cut back the overhanging branches to the boundary. This would be done at the expense of each property owner, not the tree owners. If you take this approach it would be good to advise the tree owner you are going to do this and give them an opportunity to get it done them selves. There are also access issues regarding this, Such as gaining access into the tree would require permission. If the tree is dropping branches and you feel it is dangerous (impossible to say from this picture and online in general and people have a tendency to over-exaggerate the risk of trees). Then you should approach the owner and express your concern. Suggest they have it surveyed. Log this information for future, say should damage or harm be caused it shows negligence. As you do have the right to being safe from other people's property. The tree in this case. There are no laws I'm aware of for you to use to get them to prune a tree in this case. Just ones to use should it fail and negligence could be proven, hence the above paragraph.

That is a very unusual suspect job. Would be great to know how it came about and why. On the surface of the pictures it looks totally the wrong way to deal with those Oaks

I'll have a look around the clutcj

The saw was one a picked up 2md hand in the weekend. In ran fine whilst I was there. I've since rang the fella back who sold it, after a brief chat he got pretty nasty and has since blocked my number So I'm not sure on the history of the saw. I just picked it up from the shop, it has the wrong fuel filter on, which potentially let in some crap to the injectors. Amd it's had fresh air filter. It now does run, but not 100%. There advice was to run a couple of tanks of fuel through it and see if it clears out anything. If not it will be check the piston to make sure it's not damaged and then new injectors .. I wish it was possible to buy something 2md hand without worry of being ripped off.

It has now been dropped at the fixers. I haven't s clue on these saws

After some fiddling it seems to work much better if I pump the bubble whilst reving it. So I'm assuming thisnis going to be an issue with the fuel somewhere

It would manage running for long enough currently

Thanks, although none of those relate to the 500i as it doesn't have a start position

I have a ms500i that starts very well but will not rev high. It stutters and stalls when the trigger is pulled. Any advice on what could be the issue?
