Make sure you check with Vodafone that the phone / package will work with Wifi Calling. As far as I know being on the Vodafone network is not enough you have to buy the phone / package direct from Vodafone to get it to work.

Are you on Vodafone? Then just get a phone that supports Wifi Calling........ http://www.vodafone.co.uk/explore/network/network-improvements/wi-fi-calling/?cid=vnty-vod-auto/dvynfvtq(uv(bx)ijfjuneejth

Ok had the Echo out on demo for the last two days. It is more solidly built than the Sthil but did not feel as quick. It does the job but god its heavy after a few hours!! Based on my aching arms I have started looking at the battery Husqvarna. Husqvarna Pole Saws 536LiPT5 It is only 6.2 kg inc battery and has the motor at the saw head end so no drive shaft to fail. But will it last a days work in the woods with no hope of charging? They claim 1 battery = 1 fuel fill. Based on that 3 batteries would get me through the day. But will it?

We need a telescopic polesaw for forestry work. Choice seems to be Stihl, Husqvarna or Echo: Husqvarna Pole Saws 525PT5S Petrol telescopic pole pruners | STIHL Echo ppt-265es Long Reach Power Pruner I used the Stihl HT 131 today and it worked well. I have the Echo PPT-265ES on demo tomorrow. Anyone used the Husqvarna?

We sell the PCW5000 and really rate it. I use one daily in my contracting business. The accessories you can get for it are brilliant and make it very versatile. I like the look of the VF80 but have not used one. The PCW5000 is rated at 1000kg and the VF80 is rated at 815kg.

We have a number of contracts coming up and need some extra cutters who are based near Ruthin - North East Wales. Must be self-employed and have own transport. Must have recent felling tickets as this is a requirement of the contract – no exceptions. Other tickets that would be useful – Windblow, strimmer / brush-cutter, pole-saw, first aid, tractor based winch / forwarding trailer. If you will be available for work over the next nine months and think you have the right skills / experience then please email me your C.V: [email protected] Feel free to pm if you have any questions.

I am not sure if the guys on the Swedish forum were discussing an earlier model but the current Kinetic 8x8 can be driven from the 'reverse' crane operation position by using controls on the spool block.
