    Crane job - no riding the ball

    In BC the Worksafe BC website is pretty clear, workers are to be in a man basket not ride the ball. This works ok if the tree is stable, just climb out and the crane swaps basket for a sling, rappel down, cut. If the tree is not stable it is a nuisance unless you can cut it with no rigging...

    60(65) rearmount vs 70(75) forestry

    Hi everyone I am having difficulty finding reach diagrams to compare a 70 forestry truck with a 60 rearmount. Which has more reach? I think a 70 rearmount (or tracked lift) would be ideal, but my finances aren't co-operating. Thanks Sent from my SM-G998W using Tapatalk

    Knife injury

    I was probing a tree to check for a cavity with a knife and the locking mechanism failed. I'm always on full alert when running saw, but I got complacent with a simple folding knife. It's slowly healing, kind of messed up the last month of my season. Stay alert out there guys. Sent from my...

    Mini Skid in forestry box?

    Thanks you guys, always appreciate your advice. I'm trying to make the leap to getting a bucket truck, but also want to ensure the mini skid return trip is eliminated. when hauling logs and chips. Also.. (...rear mount vs forestry) ? Sent from my SM-G998W using Tapatalk

    Mini Skid in forestry box?

    Hi does anyone roll with their mini skid in their bucket truck chip box daily? I currently load mine onto my f550 4' deck frequently. What is the height to the bottom of a bucket truck chip box? Thanks Sent from my SM-G998W using Tapatalk

    Stihl MSA 220T C-O or MSA 300

    I have the ms 220 with ap300s batteries. No experience with the husky 540i. Never liked the 540xp. Ms 220 great for small removals, limbing, pruning. Cutting wood wears the battery down fast.
