My wife ordered a 4-way for my 27 ton DHT splitter before Christmas. After being set back numerous times by e-mail, it finally arrived. Hope it was worth the wait. The 4-way weighs a ton, has an adjustable height for larger logs, and a single wedge when the 4-way isn't needed. The 4-way can be...

I've had my 455 rancher for a few years now. In that time I've cut maybe 10 cords with the saw. Last time I cut was maybe a couple of months ago. I went out to cut and the saw wouldn't start. I checked the plug and it's getting gas, checked the spark and it's there, but I'm only getting 90 psi...

Does your insert direct connect to the chimney (Slammer)? Also do you have a block off plate around the insert stopping room air from going up the chimney? 6 cords for a 1400 sq ft home is too much. I would look into a EPA Certified insert and put in a stainless liner to match the flue of the...

I have a splitter thats at least 25 years old. The old motor decided to finally give up, and I'm retiring it. I decided to update the old motor with a 6.5 hp from harbor freight. The old pump mount was bolted to the base of the splitter and not the engine so I decided to do away with that since...

Here is an article about possible changes with EPA. Hopefully they don't go overboard. I know OWB's are being slammed, but I think central heating units aren't far behind. Then slowly it will trickle down to all woodburning units. It seems like a way to phase out woodburning all together. It...

Well we've had some cooler weather so I got to try out the new furnace. I must say its impressive with heat output and its clean burning capabilities. I've used 3 med splits to carry me through the night with coals in the morning in the mild weather we have been having. Wood consumption will be...

I had a homelite XL12 given to me today. He said it ran fine and in the middle of a cut it seized I guess. Its in great shape cosmetically, its red. Not sure if its worth getting into. I have a 041, and a 025 and thought about adding this to my collection. Anything to look for? And can parts be...

Well I'm just about done. I have around 100.00 wrapped up in sheetmetal. Here is a link of the progress and the finished product. http://www.**********/econtent/index.php/forums/viewthread/38440/P0/ Now I can't wait till I can really fire it up!

This is the new Energy King 385 furnace. Looks like a nice unit, and does qualify for tax credits. Also they are looking into getting the unit EPA certified. I figured it may catch the eye of some of the furnace people. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hmg4u142IM A far better unit from the...

I resurrected a splitter a couple of years ago that had sat for around 10 years. Dad used it all the time till it came off the ball down the road then he put it up. I got it out last year, repaired it and got it running. Now this year I pulled it out, and the hydraulic reservoir was almost...

I see that there are only a couple manufacturers out there that make these. I know its a simple concept, but effective? I'm interested in hearing about how they work, for my wood furnace can and will produce high heat quickly. This is something that if will work I would be interested in. I have...

Well after a couple years of thinking, and finally getting the money we decided to purchase the 1950 Epa Usstove furnace. Its a Very nice unit, well built, fully automatic, etc. I'll need to get a game plan on installation. Some units with the psg caddy were without a blower. This unit has a 1/3...

Anyone have the upper handle mount? I broke mine today and I need to get it fixed. Just shoot me a pm, and let me know how much. Thanks.

I have a 041 Farmboss. And when tearing the carb apart many times to see its plugged, I noticed my foam was shot. it was plugging the carb. Anyhow dealer says they no longer carry the foam for the filters due to the new gasoline, with alcohol in it. They say its needed, but the new filter didn't...

I have a 041 that my father gave me. It hadn't ran for a few years, and I go it running again. One thing I notice is that it doesn't have alot of power. When I put a load on it, it will pop. It idles fine, starts easy. The piston inside has some scoring on it. I haven't tore it down yet, but I'm...

I recently had my saw in the shop and they replaced the diaphgram in the carb. Saw has ran great for a while. Today I went to start it and it will start right away, but when I go to rev it, it will die about midway into the rev. I have had no issues with the saw other than the carb. I took the...

For those who are currently heating with a woodfurnace, I just visited rko today and checked out one of the new EPA Wood furnaces made by USSTOVE. They are a very nice looking unit, fully insulated to contain the heat within the heat jacket. They have a full firebrick lined firebox, with...

I thought I had this saw fixed, but when I am cutting with it, it pops. Its like a small backfire and I can't figure out what is causing it. I have tore down the whole carb and cleaned everything. I also have new gaskets from the cylinder to the air cleaner, new plug, and new air filter. It will...

I have an old Farm Boss Stihl chainsaw that hasn't ran in couple of years or so. I need to clean it up and when I start it, it will idle so high the chain will spin the whole time. Does anyone know the carb settings for one of these, and which screws adjust what? I wish I knew the exact number...
