But sheds dont have toppers, and its toppers we are talking about, so the question still stands.

If you were a dealer would you ignore the instruction from the manufacturer and sell a topper without proof of training?

 

No because if they did what they were supposed to do you should loose your dealership for flouting the agreement your manufacturer made with the HSE........in theory at least

Whiich is one of the reasons I do it correctly.

 

The issue of the ordinary saws at the Sheds, Argos, etc is another subject dear to my heart.

 

I believe that saws should not be sold without a basic instruction to the end user by a competant salesperson as it is a dangerous machine.

 

I do personally find it ludicrous that I have to ask an obviously competant tree surgeon for proof of training, but can quite legitimaly sell an ordinary saw to the one legged, one armed, village idiot with one eye.

 

I hasten to add that I would not sell to the above mentioned unfortunate, I know his dad and he would not be pleased.
