Took the day off as well. Estimates and paperwork is today's game. Got a willow to do tomorrow in a construction zone.

BM is your license class now. What was it five years ago? I have an AM personally, like any fully equipped tree service owner has. Still waiting on your thoughts on operating a crane in NYS. Lol. Should be precious.

wtf do I care about "operating a crane in nys"? Nobody operates a crane up there? You do what they tell you to do Mr. Movement.

You really are a thick old sob. There's many good reasons to buy a log truck before a crane in my state. Don't get all pissy cause you're too dumb to figure it out.

I should do something today but really not feeling it. The big cylinder on my log loader needs the seal replaced and trying to figure out the best way to get it off and on. It looks like it weighs about 300 pounds.

Prolly more like 7/800 and your biggest problem will be finding a spanner tool to fit it and with all that heavy lifting you are gonna be beating that cap off for a month of Sundays

leave the base attached to the turret and loosen the cap before you pull the rod end pin. might be easier to just pull the rod out, repack, and reinsert assembly into base. will have to remove lock valve from base to allow rod to be reinserted. once reinstalled, with cap tightened , run cylinder in and out several times to bleed air out before you pin up to stick. this will prevent surprises caused by trapped air.

Wise words .... But what pin are you referring too , I've never see any stinking pin ?

 

[treeclimber101]

Best to leave it alone and just put a fresh diaper on it everyday

Ya, its going to be pain in the ass! I think im just going to take it to a truck shop and let them take it off. I talked to the place thats going to rebuild it and said its only going to be a couple hundred bucks.

I listen to Tom very carefully. His advice sold me on the piece of equipment you're currently questioning. Thanks for looking out though.

picked up my brand spankin new Snellorized ms201 an hour or so ago from Brad. It is beautiful with the new tec blade covers and all. Tried to use my ole ms 200 today on a 30" dbh Ginkgo but the mf wouldn't set up. Don't think this one has any high adjustment...how dumb. Had a razor edge on it too and it worked ok couple of days ago.

So I used the 150 all day chunkin huge cuts with it. Brad said this one was ever a better cranker than the first (robbed one) and I agree. Just like a surgical tool. But have to have a 210 for chunkin. I could take the 4 ms 200's in for carbs but they just gonna sit on the shelf afterwards. No gm of mine is gonna use a tophandle. ms 361's for them. Not sophisticated enough ever to change saws during the day.

So the news from my dealer is if you want a 660 you better jump. Going to a stratified computerized 661 soon and the 660 will be bye bye. Huge demand for em.

Gonna buy (up front for just the saw) my 461 (H I think with the wrap handle and other goodies) mid next week and brad's gonna do it up next Sat.
