Felling wedges for Loler????

[bob]

Therefore if the jack failed the wedge would be holding the weight of the tree.

 

BUT, if in a typical situation when using wedges (fit for purpose) a wedge failed due to a defect/damage, what then?

 

Surely Loler checks of this crutial piece of kit should apply?

 

can you spell

PUWER

Thats what it would come under if you really want to

next you will be wanting your gloves done as they are used to pull you up a tree:confused1:

or your hands

what about how your belly supports your beer glass

[skyhuck]

Your anchor point is not LOLER'ed, so the whole thing is joke.

 

I get my kit done to tick the box, we are not asked to get wedges done, so no box to tick.

That was my whole point of the thread Dave:sneaky2:

No worries Bob, I know what your point is about the HSE requirements for PUWER, but that does not cover a lifting tool.

 

Are you saying a felling wedge is not used to lift or support weight?

 

Perhaps we should ask for Hi "Lift" Wedges to be re-named?
