I mean are you covered by the landscapers insurance as working at height is normally excluded? It's one reason why insurance for landscaping work is cheaper than that for tree work.

Does it cover you for climbing?

If the string is locking( I take it you mean it won't feed out when you bump the head), it suggests to me that either the line has been on there a long time or the head is getting hot enough to allow the line to fuse to itself. Do you grease the gearbox head regularly?

Remind me never to nick your lunch, Kevin.

Often a good starting point in diagnostics of any kind.

Certainly is. I've seen you trying and you manage to connect about 1 in 4.

Nice thread and great pics, Rich. Looks like it's going well over there.

We would be on different teams but I have worked with a lot like him who had some very funny stories to tell. I used to work with a very homophobic Zimbabwean twat who was constantly needling a very camp old dealer from Brum. He put the Zimbabwean bloke very nicely in his place by saying, after the umpteenth accusation of his being a pervert, " I might be a pervert but I still wouldn't shag you."

I did nearly 20 years in the casino business before I started tree work. I bet I could make him blush without too much effort
