We don't run more than 3 wraps when lowering,definitely have to have 4 or 5 when cranking up but when that's done, wraps are removed to the appropriate amount.
2-3 wraps are the options for heavier pieces,shit doesn't run right with any more,not to mention the rope hop on the bollard.....
I have one that is actually great aside from the crank bearing that led to a hole in the tank.
Had some work done on it in Oregon at the chainsaw guy in myrtle creek,was a ripper.
I just use tappatalk on my phone and for some reason it erased th forum. I have tried to putit back but it won't for whatever reason....

I cut PLENTY of oversized wood with a short bar(as do many other professionals), none of the step by step,play by play is making any kind of sense here.
It takes some skill but.....I'm no special anything.
Unreal.
I read the stuff written,I see the pictures. Poor technique i would say.
I believe that he is saying that your finished cuts do not in fact match up with the methods that you are describing,that came from the books you are suggesting gave you these techniques. I do concur, your stumps...
