Hi i am doing my cs40/41 this week and would like peoples opinion on what happed today. i was on the ground in charge of lowering a lump of ash, the climber up the tree prepared everying ready to snatch it out. Our instructor warned me that i needed to aware that the timber will almost touch the floor. My capstan was in line to get hit so i asked " is it going hit my capstan " was told yes , so i asked " will that be ok " told yes . Ends up it bent in the entry fairlead bars (stein rc2000). cheers

what about door step trading regulations? i have "cooling off "period on bottom of my quotes. I think that if someone is savy about doorstep trading regs, if you dont offer cooling off period they can refuse t pay and aint a lot you can do about it.

After spending all day with cold wet hands i have decieded that a pair of gloves is needed. Was thinking maybe thin neoprene gloves so can still tie knots and climb. Anybody tried neoprene gloves? or are there better gloves to wear?

i found that since the planning dept. can view the application without downloading it seems better to use paper so deadlines start as soon as they recieve it. Maybe the portal could be changed so planning dept. had to download to view documents.

my first 130 wouldnt start when stopped hot , the air filter kept geting soaked in petrol . Was told to replace the carb which didnt fix it, in the end a breather in the petrol tank was replaced and that sorted it

got to agree with what has been said about husqvarna technical trousers, mine arent waterproof and i keep burning holes in them from the exshust. So if i was you i wouldnt bother with them

definitly sure about 4x4 towing trailer (combined weight under 7.5 ton) does not need o lisence because is classed as a dual use viehicle ( on and off road). i checked with my local vosa, so i know i am legal
-
that defo works, just phoned my local vosa person, and if you only work in a 50km radis from your base (as the crow flies), carry only tools to be used that day. And driving isnt your main job you need a operators lisence if you have a van, but if you use a dual purpose vehicle ( ie 4x4) you dont need o lisence

£15-18 per hour sounds very low for tree work, i charge £15 hour for gardening and thats the going rate in cornwall. And for tree work i charge £25 per hour , i think that is the minimum you can charge and still cover insurance , tools premises....etc

Try Trust insurance
-
i found trust really good, no height restrictions and they cover me for mowing and strimming
