Every chainsaw needs to be lubricated and what better way, if you care about the environment, than to use this biodegradable Bosch chainsaw oil.
Using the right oil is essential to the longevity of the chain. Let the chain overheat and it will be hard to keep a sharp edge to the teeth and the guide bar groove in which the chain sits and runs, will become excessively worm very quickly.
Chainsaw oil - biodegradable (1 litre)
If you operate a chainsaw with a less than sharp blade, there is every danger of accident and injury due to the erratic and unpredictable running of the chain through the wood.
What's more, without the right edge on the teeth of the chain, the engine will be forced to work much harder, using more fuel than is necessary and also, the life of the machine is reduced due to extra wear and tear.
This kit comes with round file and guide for sharpening the teeth and a flat fil with guide for reducing the rakers that clear the wood chippings as the saw buts.

The leaves are falling from the trees and shrubs and dormancy will soon follow when it will be time for a wholesale pruning in the garden.
For me, this is one of the more therapeutic jobs in the garden because it is a bit like housework, husbandry and auditing at the same time.
Getting close up and personal with each and every plant in the garden allows the gardener the opportunity to asses each one for disease, overcrowding or damage.
After giving the garden the once over, it is time for the physical part and believe me, on a dark winters day, when you are alone in the garden with just your thoughts, there is nothing more therapeutic than pruning.
The tools you will need are a robust pair of long arm loppers, a set of quality secateurs and a selection of pruning saws.
