    Is it just my perception, or when looking at the tech pages (greenmech, timberwolf) that greenmech has no comments/threads???

    My thoughts, but when it goes to court..........

    most people who have accidents using them are, go on guess.........so called experianced! the lad from a local authority who had his arm ripped off was 24 and had been using one for years, its a good form of insurance. Our lads get regular refreshers. Why do you need to refresh MEWP? Felling, how many new ways of felling a tree can they come up with?

    Have you tried looking under the PUWER 98 Regs?

    Showing new machines, laws, we have some people in our office who havent used a chipper for years, if they went for a job tomorrow, they can still say they have been working in the trade?

    That is our opinion, however when one of lads, recently had a serious accident, that question was asked to several lads during interviews,,,, do you get refresher training? when did you last have any? shen were you trained?

    How many people have bought the new 'climbing style' helmets because of the 'recomendation?

    So tell me the difference between, a Lantra CHIPPER novice course and refresher, YOU CAN still fail to achieve the standard on a refresher 35_CLMC35X.pdf
  14. john@arbtech
    So Lantra chipper refresher training is different to a novice learning?
  15. john@arbtech
    Refresher training is the same as a first time training?

    HSE compliant training is HSE compliant, and if theres an accident no matter who was the assessing body, if your tickets are over 5 years they are still going to ask..........WHY did you not have the advised refresher? right? I think so as thats one of the questions we were recently asked
  17. john@arbtech
    the only bonus with Lantra is you arnt paying for an external assessor
  18. john@arbtech
    There is no such thing as NPTC training, its all Lantra, and NPTC now only lasts 5 Years too
  19. john@arbtech
    Most Lantra instructors would do it at a weekend its only one day, and just booked an assessor for the next

    our price would be up there! we charge £260 per man per day min of two men. (ex vat) if there's and risk of damage to property, re-instatement to lawns etc the price goes up in accordance

  21. john@arbtech

    but you wanted less than £200 per tree?

  22. john@arbtech
    We would want a good lump more than that! and we are booked up until the middle of jan!
  23. john@arbtech
    £100 per tree????????how desperate are you for the work?
  24. john@arbtech
    probs my main concern is, after using could it be classed as administering medication? are there any alergies? side effects? what do the NHS think to it?
