As arborists we must continue to learn and improve from every experience we have, and this job was certainly a learning experience.
Dan was the climber for this job, he has removed in the region of 20-30 trees using a crane over the span of a 17 year career. Dan explains the dangers and the goals of removing large sections with a crane, but it certainly doesn't always go perfectly. Crane jobs can be a huge amount of fun and very easy for the climber, but they can also be extremely dangerous if the climber is not familiar and educated in how to tackle crane work.
We recommend if you get the chance, attend a crane removal field day workshop if you think you will take on these kind of jobs.
Using a specifically made Crane sling kit is imperative, it makes tying the slings, balancing, and knowing the capabilities of the slings very easy. The slings I use in this video is a specially made kit fro Wesspur tree equipment that meets all required lifting operations safety standards, to check out the kit on their website click this link [ Ссылка ]
