  1. spirit level may help but a tin of orange paint would make your saw run better not break down as often and be more reliable

     

    you forget bob im a sthil convert i can now start my saw in 2 or 3 pulls unlike the 40 or so it takes to fire your husky!:motz: do i not like orange:cussing:

  2. There are many trainers who have never dealt with this sort of thing in the work place , day in day out. Training situatiions are very controlled and quite different to daily work routine.

    I don't want to discourage people from training. Training is about learning safe techniques and nothing more. Skills must be mastered in the workplace which is where trainers fail as they spend more time teaching than honing their skills.

     

    training followed by experience in the work place followed by further training this is the way forward.

     

    too many students are given the training but not the saw time to back up what they have learned!!!!!

  3. hi chaps 34 is individual windblow, you must have cs32 medium tree befor you can do the cs34 test, while the advice is ok above about getting a joint assessment to save mony thats asuming you pass the 32 or you loose the lot!!!

     

    the cs34 especially if you have cs32 is an easy unit, taught in 1 day to most, focuses on planning, controlling and use of winches and then takes cuts you already know and changes them a little, bingo job done, but only of relevance if you have a single tree on the deck.

     

    CS35 multiple windblown is were the poo hits the fan stack of 6 trees, part blown and snapped top hung up, alas no green houses.

     

    from a training point of veiw hard to find the sites to run the training, is very hard, also from a trainers point of veiw id alway encourage people to do training and certification, but the choice is always yours.

     

    ive failed many cs32 candidates but most cs34 get through fine as buy the time they have worked there way through the pre required tickets they have a good standard

     

    ho hum

     

    chat soon

    the lantra training course covers partial windblown. alas not snapped tops. cs 32 to an experienced operator is also easy. too many novice operators are put forward for cs 32 without gaining enough saw time.

  4. I think ive just had the talk, that so many people have told me about.

    ive just come back from a few drinks and a nice meal. get home logged onto arbtalk, and thats when it happened, i got the talk!!! her exact words where that we should all get a life!!!!!

     

    can anyone offer any ammunition?

     

    p.s. i think its a great forum, got to go i think im on a promise!!

  5. That'll be a good one to put in the Stihl suggestion box at the AA show.

     

    We want a small bubble spirit level putting in the decal bit on the side of the recoil casing, oh, can you put in a rev counter as well!
