The bullbucker had the hammer down in the crummy, lost er on the checkerboard, tits up in the rhubarb. Hitched to the block with the hooker, talked to the r.p.f. that was mewing 'bout the merch in the S4, helped the rigging slinger string some straw line and pulled the pin. Yarded the crummy out with the cat and headed back to the big smoke for his squeeze. Translate that one, Limeys.

For anyone who is interested attached is a copy of 'arbnews' the hse's newsletter for the arb industry.

Iain, its not actually possible for hse to sort out people selling top handled saws on ebay. (Much as I would like to) we have to be able to prove a work activity when it is used, thats the law we have to stick to when enforcing. Also, As far as I am aware, the matter of needing certification to buy one is enforced by trading standards officers from the local authority not us.
There is a duty to check that the purchaser holds certification, however in my experience that has meant in the past that someone holding CS31 has been sold a top handle :bang: :censored: :blob2: Because someone didn't realise that appropriate certification means CS39, and that was from a dealer :angry2:

I know that this doesn't help, but it may explain why you got no joy when you rang us, sorry.
 
Thanks for the arb news. I've been convised i've had a problem with wood chip for a while now but it doesn't seem to bother anybody else. Not as bad as that but i've had the chest tightness.

Its quite scary the amount of stuff you can get on the bay. Harnesses rope spikes and chainsaws all you need really. I imagin that a lot of the top handle buyers are home owners thinking that there small and light weight and great for getting into the lorals.

Can the HSE do anything about home owners with top handled saws? Surely there need to be some system on Ebay to stop these things getting into the hands of untrained people. I saw an oxy-acseltine welding set on the bay as much as i'd love to get into gas welding i'd never get one without training to scared of blowing myself up. Surely Ebay must have some rules agaist selling controled products.
 
No Hope

the profile promotion is very commendable if not slightly flawed

Dictionary of life
look up

customer = money talks (white van or not)
qualfications = customer thinks Ha! what for a tree
insurance = customer thinks Ha! chancing their arm to put up prices

Arborist = Hands bound in red tape
stressed = arborist :cry:

i imagin if you poled most of the uk lads on here how many times they've been ask by customer
for proof of :- (nptc certs, insurance, first aid certs, risk assesment,formal qualifications, references etc )
OR Can't you do it any cheaper ???
pushing a snowball up an erupting volcano is 'only slightly' more frustrating :bang:

i am sure that the lads here, feel responsible and law abiding, but lets face it
there is so much to do and act on, i doubt it if we conform completley,
although the afag leaflets are very good, however given the complexities of our industry, we Need HELP to implement, not more study groups with people who are on tree.org, big business ruling the majority of the tradesmen with a minority backing

Whinge over !
