Hello, I need a small lightweight chainsaw . Its been a while since I used one ,when the building work is done on my house I've a big bushes and trees to remove.
The last one I used had a honda 50 engine in it..
Anybody know anything about them ? or what i should be looking at .
I have one. Handy enough to use, but get it wrong and it hurts.
Lidl sell them every now & then if you want to buy one...
Get a good loppers, tends to cut everything up to 2" diameter..
I'll give you a hand some evening.....
we had a great loppers and a certain roadie broke the flipping thing. Sometimes only a chainsaw will do the job.
I intend to buy one I just wanted to know if they came in the less industrial size i've used in the past ! Carrying a 50cc Engine all the way down to the end of my back garden doesn't appeal to me.
I will take you up on your offer some evening.
the main hillbilly definitely has one, but i have a few projects and I don't want to be going all the way down the country everytime I want to borrow one.
you can get them pretty much any size, from 30cc up 150cc and all of them are very easy to carry, i used a 54cc husqvarna all day long when i worked in the forresty with no troubles.
If you want a long term saw the sthil or husqvarna are the best, for chopping the odd few logs now and then get the lidl one but thats about all they are good for (i know i've tried them all)-(ex forrester/tree surgeon with chainsaw certs etc) plus they need to be tunned properly otherwise your just peeing into the wind with em.
If it's a good size tree and you need some help give me a shout and i'll bring up one of my saws.
Check out the buy and sell if your looking to get a second hand one, best way to test if the thing has good compression is to hold the saw by the starter chord and if it just falls to the ground very quickly then walk away, it's worn out. If it very slowly drops down then the compression is good but listen for knocks when it's running, also make sure that the oil pump is working too, can be very expensive to fix.
I'll look around for one for you if you like.
The stihl 021 or MS200T Arborist saws or top handle saw as we call them are nice and small, used for pruning when up a tree but they are expensive, you can use an 11" bar on them. http://www.stihlusa.com/chainsaws/MS200T.html
I ve bin out of the chainsaw world for a year. but Stilh use to do a 026 model wich is light and strong. you can put a longer bar on it, or run the origional one for higher chainspeed and power. husqvarna does a amateur range and i think model 51 is good for the job. purchase your saw localy so if you need parts or maintanance you dont have to travel far. also look into some chainsaw trousers. If the tree is to high to fell i will bring my climbing gear and dismantle it for you. Dont by Chinese chainsaw **** !!
