    Rope Length

    Same thing happened to me before with white face hornets. Definitely glad I had the right length of rope.

    Rope Length

    I agree with the longer rope too. If something happens to the crane or you run into bees on the way in you need to be able to reach the ground with the drt from the crane. I use 150' in a bag.

    Manitowoc UTC 1700 JBT Crane

    Royce, I still disagree. The overload system on my new crane will let you know if you picked too big a piece...I look at it the opposite way. If you don't use the chart and take too big a piece what good is knowing what it weighed then. An lmi is just easier to look at and gives you an...

    Manitowoc UTC 1700 JBT Crane

    This was my 12 ton RO TC-125 92' with the swing out jib and the pull out extension. Did a lot of work with it. I hear many people who think a jib is dangerous and wont use it or don't like to. This is ridiculous! A jib or extension is much safer because it allows you more reach so you can pick a...

    Manitowoc UTC 1700 JBT Crane

    This is a good thread. Only disagreement I have is with the comment of a load chart being useless in tree care. My old crane and my current crane have load charts but neither had an lmi or anything else to tell me what the piece weighed. But through green weight charts, experience, and staying...

    TIP setup

    I would bend the ears back farther on the cotter pin in the becket pin With what we do you don't want any chance of it pulling out. Even though it is a little more of a pain when detaching the becket.

    Another NY Fatality

    I talked to the crane op on the job. He said nothing of horse play. He said the brush was chipped up and the victim was raking. Another person was on the other side of the chipper with a dingo. Crane op moved crane to get another piece of wood and when he swung back the incident had already...

    Knuckleboom hand signals

    I have used the standard signals for boom up and down and extend or retract. The only difference for the fly jib being raising the signal hand over the head for the jib and at normal height for the 2nd boom.

    TV show.

    Daniel, That was a well done piece. I like how it showed you can have fun but when it came to safety you spoke with a serious tone. Very well spoken.

    Another NY Fatality

    I would get a wooden push paddle or make one. metal shovels and rakes are just as dangerous . of course plastic ones are much better

    Another NY Fatality

    You would have to be careful how a new rule was worded though. My first day on the job for a new company would be different than a persons first day ever.
