25.01.2022 This could have been so much worse. Don't risk it, it's just not worth it. The Tree Contractors Association of Australia can recommend a fully qualified arborist in your area.

24.01.2022 Plutôt que d'arracher un arbre qui gêne, cette machine permet de le déplacer !

22.01.2022 A lot of the time machinery modifications can be more hassle then they are worth. Some modifications may cause the machine or tool to run better or make it easier to use but you’ll also need to look at the safety applications of the mod. If an accident were to occur it may be you copping the blame due to something minor you’ve changed with the machine. Something as simple as an added metal plate, slight change in tyre size or a different exhaust added when the old one rusts o...ut or added to increase performance can cause major issues on the paperwork side of things. If an accident were to occur with a machine that was caused by the manufacturer the blame can easily be passed on to you as the machine is not designed to run with the modification. It’s a good idea to have SWMS suited to each machine and altered to account for any modifications used. In saying all that. Some such as a $9 beach umbrella from Bunnings on a hot day can’t be helped

12.01.2022 Note to all TCAA Members: The following link from Safework Australia on hiring a tree worker and approved methods used for machinery must be discussed with your staff. It's a 44 page document http://www.safeworkaustralia.gov.au//guide-to-managing-ris

09.01.2022 When inspecting, trimming or removing trees it’s always important to keep an eye out for wildlife. Weather there in hollows, nests or residing at the base many can be difficult to spot until it’s too late. Here’s a prime example of a habitat at the base of a dead grey box residing in a small borer hole. Can anyone guess what native this is?

09.01.2022 Re: Licence to Carry. In case you missed it when you read the article (!). Here's a link to the various state and territory regulations. Most states allow you to apply for your licence online.

07.01.2022 With the expansion of the industry comes new tools, gadgets and gear. It’s always important to keep up to date on the capabilities and limitations of your equipment weather it be the GVM or towing capacity of trucks and trailers or rope diameter and load limits of climbing and rigging gear. It’s always good to go over new and old equipment to make sure there are no faults and that everything’s still working within there limits. As an example this is my zigzag I work with and a simple change such as a rope brand with a different diameter to 11mm makes this set up no longer compatible as it’s only good for 11.6-13mm. Also with equipment such as this and with me being a larger climber weighing near 100kg I’m limited to 40kg worth of items to carry which can quickly be added up with other climbing equipment, saws or habitat boxes etc.

06.01.2022 A prime example of why licensing should be required throughout the industry and further education should be spread to help protect the general public from uncertified and dangerous tree loppers
