    To paint you a picture so you can see what level I'm at business wise, I did take an employee on about 6 months ago, he last 4 months but decided this industry wasn't for him, he wanted to be a chef, he was full time on salary, I was fully booked up for 3 weeks minimum whilst he was with me, I was doing 55 hours a week he was doing 45 hours, I will take someone else on to replace him but now I'll wait until January/ early February. With 2 people my turn over was £6.5k a month (£5.5k being labour). I really love the tree side of the business so I want to start growing that properly, my other work covered is grass cutting (2 council contracts on top of 35 domestic lawns) hedge cutting, waste removal, I sub out fencing and paving as I hate it with a passion, much more into the green side

    exquipment, as far as tree work goes I have a rayco rg13ii, ms660, ms362, ht131, transit tipper with Arb body, I'm collecting climbing equipment slowly so it doesn't hit my bank at once, I've got 2 Yale 13mm ropes one with eye, petzl zigzag, petzl foot ascender, treehog spikes, petzl harness, stihl protective trousers, cambium saver and general stuff like that, I don't want to upset you professional climbers but I do do some small climbing jobs and feel very competent, starting out I only climbed pines and Easy trees to get used to it. (See my dp)

    Hi Im a gardener, been running for 2 1/2 years and I'm starting to do a lot more tree work, mainly for a large farm near me where it's mostly cutting back branches to get tractors round fields and Cutting up any fallen trees in belts of trees, I like to be as professional as I can recently going ltd etc, what certificates would you recommend I get? I also do stump grinding with my own rayco rg13ii, and looking into getting a chipper asap. Any help appreciated

    Probably the second jet blocked, try pulling the trigger slowly, if it gets to half way/full then dies it's the second jet, the first jet is smaller which injects fuel for the lower half of the rev range and the second yet (because it kicks in after the first yet) injects fuel for the top end of the rev range, this isn't really a bad design fault, it just means there was a bit of dust in the fuel which has blocked it, I'd clean out all your jerry cans

    I have a transit tipper with a fairly lightweight body, completely empty it weights 2180 with half tank of diesel and no driver.... my old iveco crew cab tipper with a heavy boy admittedly weighed 2700kg empty.... that 2000kg IS the chassis cab weight, that crane with pump etc would weigh 400kg and the body with subframe and ram would be 450kg easy, so you will roughly be able to carry 300kg with tank of diesel and driver... i would be gutted if I was you
