    It would appear that one of them is a plastic coat, practice what you preach and ditch the plastic!
  2. F - Fix O - Often R - Repeatedly S - Shouting T - Tourette’s

  5. Unless your fatter than the gap just ladder over the post at end of Garage and drop another section over into the gap for later escape, Go to tree and spike up. Unless I’ve missed something it’s a Easy number. Edit: missed you couldn’t fit in the gap sorry, Steve has the solution, or eco plug just blow roof height, never tried this but can’t see why it wouldn’t work
  6. That would put a stop to most of the cowboys and level the playing field ? also if your not a registered user you can’t buy a chain saw would push the value of our work up ? could be a win win answer providing we don’t need two ropes to register ?
  7. @AA Teccie (Paul) this needs reading out at the meeting, it’s the best description I’ve seen that a layman who doesn’t really know what we do can look at and say that’s utter madness what are the hse thinking?
  8. Check the spring on the throttle and guvnor arms I’ve seen them fail on the Honda engines causing low power and hunting/rev problems.
  9. Cracking picture ? edited just to say WELL? What is it we are waiting for? I’m beginning to think it will be a bus and there will be 3 of them
  10. I would say yes it would need Iva as by changing the axles you had modified it’s chassis. I would lift it off it’s chassis and bolt it down to a Uk registered trailer of a suitable weight and have far less Agro/paperwork ? As to the rest of ce marking I wouldn’t be surprised by the time your done you could just buy one ready to roll from the uk agents for your choice of machine and have less stress, and better back up when it goes wrong. No dealer likes to help you out when you have bypassed them to save a grand, once you can’t get spares/info quickly the grand saved looks expensive to me.
  11. Yes some time ago, last summer possibly. Ryetec have taken Peruzzo over apparently.
  12. Nor will most things from the chair polishers ?
  13. Has it got two tow hitches just to keep HSE happy?
  14. Good find. Can we have a link please?
  15. Just imagine never being told your only a glorified gardener

    No vat but paid for all that kit? Is there a fair lump of bits of paper with the queens head on under your mattress?
  17. It’s a older shogun underneath. Good trucks but parts can be costly and a lot of independent garages can’t work with the diagnostic computer stuff. we had one that wasn’t a bad workhorse till a injector went and basically wrote it off!
  18. Looking at this list more training is needed, not more ropes for the climber to get wrong. IMO 95% (rough guess) is climber error or kit failure poss from lack of proper inspection more kit won’t solve this just increase climber error and more kit not to bother to check/look after Arboricultural Association - HSE Fall from Height Incidents involving arborists WWW.TREES.ORG.UK <p class= lead bold mb10 >This article contains brief examples of the falls from height reported to HSE under RIDDOR.</p> <p>All injured persons were arborists.</p> <h3 class= dgreen... Also as a after thought will more kit increase risk taking “because the other rope will save me”???
  19. You can’t half the thickness of the rope it would be twice as dangerous bit like srt compared to drt ??‍♂️
  20. ART positioner all the way. No further questions needed it just works in any weather without stress or thinking it just does what it needs to and very very well.
  21. That’s how I was shown to get the angle, ive got a pair welded together next to the grinder ?
  22. @the village idiotThank you for your time to write this all down, As has been said cracking thread and project

  24. Ring James at approved hydraulics. He sorted scanreco bits for us
