I have knackered up my brother Ryobi ERH-710RS and on inspection the switching mech. has shattered or just fallen apart. Tried to find a parts and diagram list online but no luck so was wondering if anyone here has one or the owners man if that has it in? Cheers

hmm, okay thanks for all your help and info....will wait until i've got current lintels out and see what levels are like............guessing by this house.......**** lol

what about quarry tiles as packers? I has a whole floor's worth to get rid of and they will bulk out most the gap and then a slither of slate tiles? or just stick with the mortar?

1 motar to 2 water? So lift it and then pack the mortar under the bearings ?

Hi all. Installing a catnic lintel for a new doorway on external cavity wall. The existing wall has a door way and a window as per this imagie The bit I am unsure of now is fitting the lintel with regards to height. Currently the lintels are 340mm from bottom to joist above with...

so from that, given the height of the lintel I need CX50/100 and info as per catnic http://www.catnic.com/lintels/CX50-100.aspx height = 232 this means I need to have 457mm from bottom of liten (new opening) to the bottom of joist above? I hope not, because I don't have that amount! I...

Further to my last post re. UB lintel I have worked out that a catnic extra heavy duty will be more cost effective. MY questions is though, the little diagram states on the inner skin the the void is a continues solid block infill. what exactly does this mean? breeze blocks in the...

The shape being a square spreading over both inner and outer skin? Or a L shaped stone?

Hmm, delved a little into this. Seems I could have 2 option here. 1. Bring the outer skin in line with the inner skin and hope the BCO agrees that this is okay due to the fact an opening already exists within 550mm of end wall. Or, not sure if this is possible but. 2.Fit a 'corner'...

Well i gave details over the phone which they said was okay and took a handsome sum of money for the privilege. So think will def get them out to actually see it. Thanks for all you advise Tony, much appreciated.

I have had approvle forms from BC but no visit as yet. And have has a SE round to do calc and I did mentioned the narrow end but he did not express any intrest or concern about it. Think I will get BC round see what he thinks. If I have to move it in more it may just scupper all the...

Aaaah right, that all makes sense then, many thanks. Yeah have looked at Catnics, the one I need would be £130 where as UB with the plate is going to be around £90 So am I correct with my proceeder of doing the job or have I missed anything out. One other potential problem. The end...

The calcs say 178 x 102, so the width of the bottom plate I can work out from brick and cavity widths. So is there more weight on the inner skin than outter as from that sketch to me it looks like the outer is not as well supported as the inner skin?

Hi all. Just hoping for some pointers. I've been putting this off for along time now but need to bite the bullet as it were. Right, the light blue will be new doors Dark blue will need to be new brickwork as the doors do no span to the original width of window Green is existing...

Sorry to bump an old thread. 1st off this is a great guide and very helpful. As Skavenger said, there is not real guide on t'interweb for this so will done! I'd just add that instead of the kit as linked to screwfix a cheaper alternative if you live near an Ikea They sell foil...

Thank you both Tony and Woody for your advise. I have asked him to explain a bit more about the windpost. It just seems to me that a 80 x 80 steel tube surely can't be much strong than a brick wall that's been standing for 80 odd years! What I don't fully understand is what is making...
