Riske assessment/method statement stating 020 for use in tree only Risk assessment stating all climbers to wear type c chainsaw trousers I appreciate these happened a long time ago and probably not your fault but if the person in charge had prepared the neccessary paperwork making you aware of the risks they may not have happened,- and you'd have a few less scars that said "chicks do dig scars!"
  7. That may work for crown thinnning (not that I'd spec a 50% thin) if you were undertaking a 25% reduction you would remove 25% of the limb to a suitable growth point.
