  1. Got an electric winch on landy and it do's battery in quicker then normal use. Has a chipper got a big enough alternator to keep up with supply need any way. There are a couple of hydraulic winch's out there which will pull you off your feet as they are fast.
  2. Used oil called Plantoil on a job near river about 5 years ago with no trouble when changing back to what I use normally still got some kicking about in a can some were.
  3. Changed springs 4 months ago to see if it made a difference which it has
  4. 150 ones and only 4 months old.
  5. I saw a monkey winch about 6 years ago in a barn it was 3 times the size of all the others I have seen for sale and on YouTube. He said it was a special order one with 20 ton rating bet it still sits there.
  6. Maybe your supervisor has always seen tree surgeons using them with ppe on but that's the norm as use other saws as well.
  7. If DVSA gave us free run at it we could come up with one by the end of year.
  8. That would be a project to do, my old boss had a 2A forward control but was modified a bit.
  9. If there was a perfect answer we all would run that set up.
  10. Even if it can not tow 3500kg but only 2500kg you will still carry more. Car or van will tow most chippers to site if. 2 of you working.
