Sitting here at the ehap class on a hard chair eating my box lunch provided with the class. Learning some things. One of the instructors fell 60' outta a tree trimming in prep for a compition the following day. He held up his mask helmet and said it saved his life.

That guy wrote an article about his fall in the TCIA magazine. He didn't come out and say it, but he was using a complicated climbing set up (leap frog or something like that) and forgot a step when setting up. Blamed it on not having his head in the game.

I think it was. He is with Mead tree and turf care. They are halfway between baltimore and fredrick, md.

That is the guy. He said some of it was his head not in the game, some of it was a infection in his lungs. IDK, but either way its a good reminder to keep focused on what your doing.

See what i can dig up. They go through and mark the sides or how wide they want it with marker flags and the bright colored tape. We fell the larger stuff like over 15-18 inches the rest i we chew up with a forestry mower. ill attach some pictures of our 280xp gotta do it with my phone tho. I don't have a very big forestry mower its a smaller older rayco but anything under 15-18 it chews right up. Then we usually use tractors like the one i posted pictures of to skid stuff to the chippers or winch stuff with cranes and other crap. We usually don't do the stumps if we do we rent a deere dozer from RSC i think its weighs around 30-40k we get a pretty good deal on it for renting so much.

We been runnin this guy for a while its a tough machine we have taken it to hell and back got it in 2005-or 06. Its the #1 chipper in my book we are using it and a 1990 for the big stuff the 1990 is brand new and the 280 throws way way farther and harder. Bandit had to put a new radiator core in it the thermostat crapped. was gonna trade it in but just cant part with it has been so super dependable 0% downtime still on the factory clutch. So other than the thermostat that didnt hold us up since it didnt start shutting down till the end of the day friday its been super.
