As long as you use the saw how they ( the instructors ) want you to , you will live . No point in trying to climb in a suit of armor if there is no need bud .

I am , well was ( old now ) the same . So . If domestic price for the job . If forestry piece rate . I like to be home too . 👍 -
I'm sure it is . How ever I think the dudes that dream up the emission regs don't count the nasties that petrol engines put out ( breaking down the ozone layer ) and just concetrate on the nasties the diesel engines put out ( low lying soot ) . They are probably as bad as each other polluting wise , just different .

Best brush cutters/clearing saws?
Stubby replied to drinksloe's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
Just me but I think you need less power for a mulching blade and more power for fat line ( eg 4.0mm ) I run the mulching blade on the 545RX and the fat line on the 555RX . With the blade the inertia keeps it going ( the big fly wheel affect ) . -
No DPF regen cycles ?

I think not . If he got struck and was killed or injured it would still be partly or wholly our responsibility . That's what pisses me off . Was him that chose to be confrontational/twattish .

This is what happened to me once time .....Steve is up the tree . There are foot path closed signs at each extreme end . Cones and large red and white plastic barriers . It is very obvious whats required . Steve cuts a lump and doof it hits the deck in the " kill zone " Along comes mister keep fit jogger dude . Totally ignores the foot path closed sign . Jogs on through the cones I start to shout Stop meaning Steve stop cutting . Bloke thinks I mean him , gives me the finger , vaults the plastic barrier , jogs through the kill zone slightly avoiding the ugly lumps on the ground , goes to vault the other plastic barrier , catches it with his leading foot and fall flat on his front . Picks himself up leaving the barrier down , jogs out through the other cones and footpath closed sign . I take my hat off and throw it on the ground .

Also , on another thread , you can read about tree workers going ballistic when Joe Public tries to ignore " foot path closed " signs and walks / jogs through the drop zone .

Is it domestic or can you just knock em over in a woodland ? If domestic price the job , if its commercial felling very much depends on what the spec is . Second thinnings to clear fell , flat ground , steep slope etc etc -
Thanks for clearing that one up bud . 👍
