How often do you wash?

[Dean Lofthouse]

Yes but, I never have two people in and use it on maximum leg settings. If I am doing a job where it is going to full height and or outreach I always anchor on to the tree or anything but the basket.

 

With one person in and maximum leg extension you simply can't tip it over. It's only when you have two people in or have the legs so they are not fully extended that the sensors come into play and I can't trust electronic sensors anymore

Did you passenger not get paid out by you PL or EL insurance?

 

If there's a loophole Skyhuck, they'll find it and they did.

 

I wasn't actually doing tree work, I was doing a favour for a friend without pay, he wanted to point his gable end.

 

The insurance said, because it wasn't tree work they wouldn't pay out and he was not an employee, I was his employee.

 

Most people who are insured will find out when they come to claim, that infact, most of them are not.

I wouldn't ever be able to relax after that, thing is if you have a tree to anchor into you don't really need a platform. Only used them when tree's knakered

Yes but I'd rather take my chances with a branch slowing my fall than going with the picker.

 

The oak you did looked as though the main stem was solid, you couldn't have rigged the branches down without deadwood flying all over the road. Similar if there'd been a greenhouse or conservatory.

 

Matt did exactly what the platform comes in handy for, to bring the extremities in bit by bit by hand so he could control the deadwood in sensative areas.
