Chipper, Pole saw & Hedge Trimmer Courses needed
BenC replied to BenC's topic in Training & education
Not according to the people who are running this contract. If theres a ticket for something youve got to have it before you can use it. -
As the title says can anyone run the above courses on 19th or 20th March in the Northwest England area. Thanks in advance Ben

have you tried fitting a nylon bush to keep it central?

Hi Flex

With a small bit of practice Big Shots are fantastic. You dont need all the power that they can produce but its there if needed. Defo on the must have list with a harness, climbing line, cube, ect

5:1 is better using a couple of these Medium Double Swing Cheek Pulley 13mm rope | F R Jones and Son Pull up system to create a false anchor on another line and tie off at the base:thumbup:

I always turn to the wife for encouraging words like " Toughen up princess" and "you can rest all you want when your dead"

Heres some from me. Old Imori Ive just done. Only broke 6 needles lol. http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u161/benc_2007/imorisplice.jpg And a Rope Guide I made a while back http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u161/benc_2007/ropeguide.jpg

I always fall round to the underside so I`ve learn to cope.

Feeling for you Steve.

Does a Spiderjack clutch fit in a Lockjack?
-
Yeah thats the downside less margin for error. Its amazingly effortless when you use it this way especially with a rope guide.
-
Maybe I should rephrase. The rope Im using is 11.7 mm so I used the 11/12 mm clutch and sometimes it was arkward to move so I tried the 12/13 mm clutch and I found it alot smoother so I wondered if anyone else does this ( use a larger than needed clutch) and if they do have they come across any problems. Also I was wondering what rope other people use?
-
Wow must not be many Lockjack users about.
-
If you combine another mallion with the stopper knot you`ll make your multi saver retrevable:thumbup:
-
Has anyoneone used the 12/13 clutch with Yale Imori? As I tried it today and it was quite a bit smoother than the 11/12 clutch.

Hey I was born in New Plymouth. Found some old photos of the place that makes it look like a mega metropolis now Ha Ha:lol:

Hello We have several Timber Wolf chippers at my company and there all old and suffer from the same thing which is the throttle keeps returning the middle. i.e. turn the revs up and it revs down, turn the revs down and it revs up. Do you know how to fix this problem? If you need serial nums I can get them for you. 2 x 150dh, 2 x 150dhb, a 6" and 8" tracked chipper. Regards Ben

Also try picking up a bottle of serrapeptase,hollands and barrets or any health store should stock it.It eats and breaks down scar tissue in the body it's extracted from silk worms.Asia and Germany actually prescribe it,it is a very very effective replacement for anti inflammatory meds,which overtime can play havoc on your stomach. Hi Yeti I took your advice and got some serrapeptase for a few aches and pains and Ive got to say Im very impressed. I cracked a rib and even though Im a fast healer I think it helped me no end. It been about a week and a half and it feels like Im about 4 weeks on from the point of my injury, judging from the last ime I did it, only giving me gip when I cough, sneeze or do someting dumb. So thanks for that little gem. regards Ben

Thanks David for the advice, I have already seen the pictures in the posts and I specificly wanted to see how people attach the wire to itself as I can think of several different ways but wanted to find out the most resilient way as I have a limited amount of wire and I keep pulling the wire apart (e.g. snapping it) which is fustrating to say the least.
