STIHL battery saw

[carlos]

the lack of petrol engine noise is an obvious advantage to the climber in the tree but do people find the lack of noise means that the groundie is in the way more and at a higher risk??

i havent used a battery saw or worked alongside one so just curious.

thanks carl

Why would the groundy be in the way more because the saw is electric and not 2 stroke ?

Noise Stubby, most groundies are attuned to looking up and being aware when the saw is on full chat.

Yes . I have extraordinary back neck muscles from years of looking up ! but surely if wood is being cut above your head you godda look up . Common sense . They are not totally silent .

I think I'll get one and send it to Spud for modding.

You would think so wouldnt you,its common sense...yet i still get ***** walkin in to the drop zone without lookin up or askin if its ok to do so.With the battery saw it isnt completely silent but its difficult to hear over a chipper or a ground saw at an idle never mind full pelt

There are many benefits to workng with these saws...Silence is one...and with that also comes a very relaxed and peaceful working enviroment.Happy climber and groundies able to converse and work ultra safe.

 

 

 

Until you turn the chipper on?!
