What's the load cell are you usingm

It's fine on Beal indrustrie 10.5mm

I'm pretty sure battery saws will still cut.. unless the policy is to only use flat batteries and manually pull the saw back and forth..

Why waste your time looking for alternatives which will never be Implemented or adhered to and just explain that the operatives, one or both were at error which can and will happen even though you have a robust stanard? More paper pushing won't fix all the accidents. It sounds like you would have a decent system in place that just needs re clarifying to the team. But TBH if your saying they shouldn't be within 5m of each other, all that's achieving is setting a rule that will be ignored as it not practical so the onsite standard just becomes to do whatever. Unrealistic systems create poor working practices. Realistic systems create good working practices. Barriers between team members is Unrealistic and will soon be abandoned in place of standing next to each other... Keeping a distance of more that a person can reach with a saw is realistic and will form efficient safe practices...

Well I was to late... 185kg would have been my guess though..

@Rich Rule Many years on how was this jacket? Still going? worth the purchase?

In this scenario, I would state something like... The proposed footprint impedes within the RPA of tree X by X meters. However, further investigations and study of the land's previous use and composition have revealed... 3 roots, etc... therefore, it is highly unlikely that the proposed plans will have a detrimental effect on the health and stability of tree X. Then, display on a map how much of the RPA will be protected and how, ideally, the total m2 should exceed the minimum. You can also state the remaining RPA exceeds the minimum required area of Xm2 to show the tree being considered and you not pinching bits on of its RPA in multiple sides. State what you see, and give reasoning for what your doing if it's outside of the recommendations of BS5837. The circle RPA's are in relatity to black and white.

Sounds like you need to not be lazy and put some effort into moving it onto a smaller adjacent fire. Most of what you wrote sounds like your trying to justify burning other animals to save you some effort of moving it onto an adjacent fire.

One in four year, that broke just within warranty. Amd a battery cause I unnecessarily left it in heavy ran not being used for a couple of hours. Sounds like keeping a spare would be worth while for you.

Solidur CLIMB chainsaw trousers Type A WWW.CHRISFORESTRY.CO.UK The Climb class 1 chainsaw protection trousers, design A with additional calf protection, will offer exceptional comfort... These also seem good if your into more protective. Rated type A but have all round calf protection which makes more sense to me then rear protection all up the back of your thigh. I've not tried these though and they haven't got the huge vents.

Yes. You can lunge, squat and twerk in them without hindrance. Also lined with a very nice wicking fabric. I'm a medium in these as well as other brands. They are French so made for European size people rather than Americans where a XS seems to be a large anyhwre else 🤔 This is the ones. Solidur Infinity Chainsaw Trousers WWW.CHRISFORESTRY.CO.UK INFINITY Super Stretch Type A Chainsaw Trousers Class 1 EN381-5 Low bulk 5 layer protective material. Coolmax® lining for... The only thing I didn't like was the yellow tool pocket on the side of the thigh it's just a saw dust trap. I unpicked the stitching and done away with it which was a good choice. Also just noticed they are type A not C. None the less they are by far the best trousers I've tried vs sips & stihls. Also a sensible price

Chris forestry is the place to get the solidurs from

I have solidurs.. Unsure which, not the climber ones. Mine are front protection only and no issues using them for climbing. Mine have huge vents down the back of the thigh. The comfiest trouser I've owned by some way

Did you find anyone for this?
