Trailer mounted are useless on slopes compared to spider.

Sorry, spider mewp is what i meant to say

From my limited experience. I would choose a trailer mounted mewp

Because of their ability to work on slopes.

From my limited experience it seems to effect older trees.

60/70 years on.

Species?

Chestnut (street tree Berlin ) , Oak ( Garden tree Kladow Berlin ) , Scots Pine ( kladow ).

can‘t think of the fourth one.

I‘ve just finished a tree which i used cabling because of the small chance it would happen.

It was at a children’s playground ( Kita ).

I‘ve seen this happen four times (SBD) , south facing long branches with direct sunlight on the bark.

I have bought a Tajfun rca 400 and I need to sharpen the chain . I am thinking about buying a bench grinder chain sharpener , but in the processor manual it says the chain needs sharpening with a 10degree incline and the only grinder with that capability are between three and four hundred pounds . Would a normal grinder that you can’t do the incline on suffice ? Thanks in advance 

Get in touch with RobD maybe he can help.

Thanks for sharing. How old roughly was the tree.

is it possible to graft a bridge to bypass the damage.

Every climber has at sometime cut her or himself with these saws.

sometimes it’s worse like yours.

Heal well.

Started working at 6 am today. Forecast is 35 degrees centigrade. ( Berlin )

I somehow think he’s more famous ( in America ) because of the loss .

We have been running these and can't fault them ,you can buy 3 for the price of one senna and still have change , the only issue is only three will connect but mostly we only use 2 any way.

I‘ve recently bought these and i‘m glad I did. 

i can listen to music,podcasts and answer the phone.

the ones I bought have fm radio but no screen .

about 80 pounds a pair on amazon.

on certain jobs so much safer.

and at this Price there’s no more excuses.

Great pictures coming in , fantastic trees.

Some quality black/white pictures would be interesting.
