  7. That in a nutshell , I would not want to imagine the ball ache of having a portawrap in a tree , safe bloc is more than capable and easy to reposition and no hassle. sorry for posting this again , but to me it proves the simple beauty of the device that has all the benefits you want or need in this scenario.

  13. STIHL has expanded its sprayer offering with the launch of the SGA 60, designed to combine operator comfort with automatic and precise liquid distribution. Built for groundskeepers, landscapers and gardeners, the model removes the requirement for manual pumping, delivering consistent pressure throughout the spraying task. Providing a working pressure of up to 4.5 bars, the SGA 60 uses the STIHL AK System battery and features a 15-litre tank capacity. Its five nozzles enable users to tailor the spray pattern depending on the application, whether applying fertilisers or other solutions across a variety of areas. With a quick-change feature, professionals can choose between single, double, quadruple, fan-jet, and adjustable modes, ensuring effective coverage specific to the application. Ease of use is at the heart of the SGA 60’s design, with straightforward pressure controls, an intuitive ON/OFF switch and a clear battery charge indicator. Additionally, padded shoulder straps, back support, and a hip harness evenly distribute weight for minimal strain, allowing for comfortable use. The 2026 addition arrives as STIHL celebrates its 100th anniversary. Since 1926, STIHL has defined the global standard for battery and petrol-powered forestry, landscaping, and residential gardening equipment for professional and domestic users.

  14. I want one now! As you say, it would be great for wider hedge reductions, especially the overstood stems. 0.9, 1.6 or 2.2m? You’d want all three!
  15. An even simpler system is just telling the customer the lawn β€˜may have a few dents in it’ and avoid negative rigging completely.
  16. In addition to the above you are removing approx 50% of the length of the working line. We all should know on sketchy trees the more rope is in the system the safer it can be.

  18. I think it will just over complicate things inmensely. A good trick to have in the bag when needed but not necessarily one to be used daily. About 16 years ago I was working for a firm and me and the other climber reduced a massive London Plane tree over about 8 gardens. Nearly every piece had to be rigged so we took a lowering device up the tree and set it up and just moved the rigging pulley around sections of the tree. After about 3 or 4 attempts we decided it was a waste of time having it in the tree. It also wasted the time of the climber using the device when they could had been else where cutting. Lastly, it was no benefit to the groundsman. Granted that scenario was for the tip reduction of a large spreading canopy and not in a stem. I honestly just see it as extra hassle Alex. Nothing to do with it jarring with what we have been told. Having the move pulleys down a stem when negative rigging can be a bit tricky the larger you get. Then you are introducing the need to reattach the lowering Device for each cut. Or you could just position the lowering device in a place that only needs to be moved once? Such as the bottom, I.e when you’re finished. Oh, hang on, isn’t that how we have been doing it for years: ?
