    Pfanner Gladiator Chainsaw Pants

    Don´t see any reason why they should be washed every week, they don´t hold on to the dirt like cotton pants. Choose the grey ones and you´re on the safe side for a long time. Should I try and get you a pair when you´re over, Mark. I believe last time your measures were XS+14cm, have you got a...

    Pfanner Gladiator Chainsaw Pants

    SIP 5-1 is black, light but warm. Pfanner is either red or grey, a bit heavier and warm but maybe not so warm as SIP´s. I´ve used both both the climate of Norway rarely gives an opporunity to campare how warm they are. The Gladiators are nearly waterproof over the protective layer and have...

    Pfanner Gladiator Chainsaw Pants

    They are actually heavier, more solid fabric and the extra coating on the front weighs more.

    Pfanner Gladiator Chainsaw Pants

    Fabric, design, quality - its just another legue of pants. And you probably will wear out three Stihls, Huskys or SIPs at the time you wear out a gladiator. $400 is a lot more than they cost here, but it still is worth it.

    Minor saw cut more serious than first appeears....

    OK, I totally go with you on your thoughts over long bars, too big saws etc, personally I use a 346XPG with a 13" bar. But we always use chainsaw protective boots, not just because its statutory in Norway but also because it makes sense. There is a wide range of great boots around now that are...

    Minor saw cut more serious than first appeears....

    I´m a bit confused - did he use chainsaw protective boots? If not, why didn´t you list that as one of the reasons for the tragic outcome of the accident. And if he did, why did they fail?

    what are your trim specs?

    22kV - min distance 3m from the wire throughout the cycle, which means we need to trim back to about five mtr every fifth year. 240V - min distance 1m throughout the cycle, or 2m when pruning. Stems may be closer but not in contact with the line. These spec´s are national standard in Norway and...
