  1. He is a directly supervised worker, if he makes a mistake the problem lies with the level of supervision, particularly given that he was new
  2. You can get a combination overload and overload clutch, would that make enough difference ?
  3. Longer arms on 3PL or put an axle and drawbar under it Both have issues though, longer arms will probably mean front weights and make your kick out huge, not so bad on site but its a car killer in traffic. running it as a trailed implement would be my choice
  4. Dump the gearbox and run the chipper direct on 1000 rpm
  5. Its not up to the enforcement officer. He is a flunky with little or no real authority, the grandly titled enforcement officers job is primarily to investigate and present his findings to decision makers, still they do like to stroke their own ego's The ones with that authority would be the LA legal team and they base the decision on legal precedent. The simple fact is that if you are an hourly paid employee with no decision making authority any prosecution will fall on its face. It would be moot and pointless because it would be punishing the wrong person and allow the perpetrator to go un punished. If that were the case an employer could simply offload the fine and any criminal record onto an employee.
  6. Not if he is deemed in the eyes of the law to be an employee
  7. The client must be allowed to make an informed choice so any terms need to be shown before the job starts. On a website is good and on the quote would be better.
  8. Take on all comers regardless. In the real world, you don't get to pick and choose so get used to it now.
  9. Nope.................... When the iron curtain fell the AK became as common as muck all over the "Wild East". The AK also packs a good punch making it a superior implement for tree felling. its a bit "stihl v. Husky :laugh1:
  10. Out of interest, what did you do previously to support ????
  11. Let people do the writing (tell them to keep it short and simple) then go over the ink with a small gouge or similar. Pick out the wording with a contrast colour then surface coat. Its a lot more work but it will be as permanent as it gets.
  12. I have had that conversation as well I think the giveaway that that trees are owned by a third party is Why would you need to tell anyone else if you were above board and pukka?
  13. So just because someone chances their arm with a free advert, you assume the work is getting done :laugh1::laugh1: Best case some have a go puts it through the new fence and does one. Anyone noticed that the trees appear to be in the next garden over???
  14. I am in Oldham, I can have a ride up there if you cant find anyone nearer
  15. Rivets will spoil the look of it, a Polyurethane adhesive is the way to go and its stronger than a pop rivet
  16. 40mm box with a 2mm wall is plenty strong enough for a frame. If its just a greedy box going on an existing tipper body you can go down to 25mm box as long as you don't want to dance on the roof. The problem with aluminium composite panel is that you need to have some support or it will bulge when full. If I were doing another, I would make some "Z" purlin material and make a composite. I glued the last one with Polyurethane Adhesive and it was very successful
  17. Speaking as someone who has had the misfortune to drive one for a day, they are woe full to drive. You couldn't pay me enough to do it again.
  18. I used to live about 5 minutes away from that, the Christmas market was always a bit "tourist tack"
