It always sucks when the client isn't forth coming with tea and coffee. Mind you nothing worse than when you are waiting for the morning coffee and you think they have forgotten so you get in the tree and get to the top for the client to come out with the coffee!

I take my travel mug everywhere with me, so if this situation arises I get the lads to pop the coffee in there and send it up :-). Nice morning coffee with a view.

Turned out it didn't run out of fuel. I didn't notice it cut out, the groundie did. He thought it was out of petrol so filled it up, wouldn't start. I checked the stop button on the cage- fine, still wouldn't start after five mins he found the emergency stop button on the base which I had dropped a branch on. Got going again. It has a hand pump to get you down in an emergency but I've never had to use it. Cup of tea? At a place like that? No chance, I'd sooner work at a smaller place with a friendlier owner!

 

That's the drawback of an emergency stop button working on the push stroke

After doing it a few times in the Nifty I wired the switch backwards instead.

The few I've used have let you come down and in slightly on their own with no power (albeit very very slowly). Do modern ones not let you do that?
