Denver's pic of what a lil juice can do to a truck is vivid.
I have a large sycamore (3'x70') growing in a 4' wide spot between a fence and driveway and up through service lines to 2 houses and a bit close to street wires to remove today. It will be a pita no doubt. No crane access unfortunately. 95% of it will have to be roped down.
I was lying in bed thinking what if a limb caught one of the service wires and tore it off of house and it landed live on the bucket truck and caught the truck on fire. The pto is all-electric, what if it shorted preventing the operator from lowering the booms. I keep a 100' length of throw line in the basket for a situation where the booms are up and truck dies, a climbing line could be pulled up and anchored to the basket tie in point, for self rescue.
But if the truck was electrified and no ropes could be accessed, or the basket was directly overhead of the burning truck, or the truck was burning very hot and fast, that could be a bit harsh in terms of rescue.
Just wondered what ideas you folks might have on this. Maybe I'd be SOL. But the scenario doesn't seem that far fetched.
