Mine is rated to 500lbs unrestricted.

You sure? Highlight my text and all will be revealed.

I've had 3 people in the lift before doing tree work! We crazy like that. We were picking pears. ETA: I flew, my cousins picked, no way doing that solo is faster :tounge out:

A mini will seriously change how the average tree company does average removals. I'd rather have my mini before my lift, and my lift before my dump trailer.

If only it were possible to get another set of hands in the basket that weren't attached to your body. That way, on the bigger stuff in this mystical world, all you would have to do is run a saw and move the lift. Oh, and since we're in the dream world and all, give the other set of hands 5+...

Yep.

Cuz everyone knows that trees are all the same, just like tree companies and their setup. You lose.

Ha precisely, Dave. You have the advantage of a rotatable basket. For the record I said that I occasionally use 2 folks, its hardly the norm and it's not slower.

In other words, you're at work. :lol:

Showoff!

They make a 50ish footer, the 76 footer, and a 150 footer in articulating chassises. Unless I worked in tight areas like Wesely, I'd get the 75' unit. As it stands, my trailered 56' unit is still working dandy for me and my needs.

The operating cost of dedicated lifts are low as a snakes belly. I bought my lift in mid 05, thus far I've had to spend $280 on the electric motor controller, went out on a fluke last April. I doubt I've spent over $100 on fuel in the past 2 years, and probably $25 on electricity. An...

Ha MB, Ryan and I toured the island with Wesley and families.

Ha, hiya Ryan, I'm Carl from HI.

Lenny?

The speed is similar to my manly lifter. I can do alot more from my basket than from a rope (cut and throw limbs) and venture to say that on an equal tree, my lift could outdo most above average climbers on an average (of course there are extremes) day in and day out. They don't replace...

I'd take either.

Ha I think he was talking about the disappearing act you performed. All that on one load? Maybe a touch overweight eh? ;) Sweet setup!

How tippy is it forward and aft? Going up hills/ramps and the like? Have you manage to scratch the powder coat yet?

They sure work ham dandy for limited access treework.
