Matching in the bore cuts is always a nice feeling when you are felling trees over guide bar length. Testing out the MSA260C to see what it has power wise and undertaking bore cuts is a great way to test it. Power and pressure is a key element to achieve accurate cuts on bores as to prevent the saw kicking around. STIHL STIHL

Dealing with large canopies on felled or fallen trees carries with it a high level of risk which can cause injuries or in worst cases fatalities to operators within the Forestry and Arboriculture industry. Main aspect to take into account is the canopy and stem rolling causing crush injuries. When dealing with larger trees planning is the most important part to remember. Stage removal of the canopy is the safest method to deal with the tree. If machinery is available to aid with the process of crown breakdown the task will be made easier but uncontrolled movement can still occur. I don’t personally have an arb digger and grab so I adopt the use of a winch to secure the stem and also in this case I use the winch to roll the stem in stages to bring the branches and stems down to a safer working level. Always take time plan the operation and continually re-assess the condition and position of the tree as you work through the process. STIHL Portable Winch

Just back from a great few days in the forestry of north wales training windblown trees. I finally got the chance to see my friend’s fantastic little forwarder in action. The alstor is designed to carry the weight but leave very little to no trace on the ground which is ideal for sensitive forestry and woodland sites.

De-tensioning and re-tensioning of pull cord on a Stihl 261. The method shown will work on most pull cord cases for nearly any machine. This video also includes one very important check which a lot of videos don’t include, final check to make sure we have not over tensioned the internal band spring. STIHL
