I developed chronic lower back pain from seating and getting off the truck to unload pallets with non electric pallet jack only six months after acquiring my CDL A. The Ostheopatic Orthopedic Dr. told me my pelvis was about one inch misaligned about 45 days after the injury occurred. I went through a massive amount of pain from first being hurt and being able to walk to actually go see a doctor. The company I worked for terminated me after so many days required for recovery. I'm still seeking medical help for recovery. I miss being on the road.

very informative, i never knew how to use my radio. now i do!

That’s not steep side slope. Compared to the inlets

im a bit overweight at 5'4. do you think i'll be ok on the block? im fit and i work out but i am on the heavier side,i pass strength tests etc, also in my 30s

Thank you for this thorough shoulder superset exercises for loggers. I work with loggers in Maine, and also encourage this set.

Owner opp here! Dont be stupid and loaderman are hard on the strap.. diffent grapples ect. $400 -500 per strap could change more than 3 a yr. Talk to the loaderman

Do you need to be licensed to use those frequencies if you’re just going in and out of those roads if you’re not a logger trucker

I miss paper logs, my company just went to samsara big brother just got bigger. I wouldn’t recommend anyone going into commercial driving unless you enjoy driving with a leash around your neck a driver can’t drive anymore. I’m glad I’m retiring in a few months

Good day. I do like to download this video and share it in my social media. Thank you.

Great tips! Thanks

Good video and great see the information getting out there. Far too many people underestimate how important this is and how busy fsr'/rr's can be. As many other commenters have already pointed out, IC really needs to increase the accessibility of radios. the licensing requirements are way too hard to comply with. Maybe they should look at adding an "civilian" level of license or something.

"Make sure you use the radios because people will die" Also... "Our petty requirement for licensing is more important, we'd prefer people to die than use non approved radios" Pound sand

As a retired West Coast faller one thing i noticed towards the end of my career, on town jobs specifically, the falling contractors promoted and started working the fallers for the full 6.5 hrs with no lunch break. I felt then an still feel now that this constitutes a safety hazzard. Stopping for a proper lunch break should be mandatory for all fallers regardless of how much of a hurry everyone is in to get home at the end of the day. Stopping for a proper lunch break provides benefits in many ways. When a faller is on steep ground in challenging conditions taking a physical and mental break and eating a light meal prevents fatigue in the last couple hours. Stopping for a half hr break also allows the faller to access their immediate surroundings and next sequence of cutting activities in greater detail. I always used the last 10 minutes of my lunch break to set myself up, this included, filing, moving gas jugs, accessing the lean direction of key trees and potential hazards above the falling face etc... When i worked for contractors in town who didn't want or allow the their Fallers to stop for a proper lunch break i always felt rushed and i was definitely more fatigued at the end of the day compared to when i took proper breaks. Fatigue is even more of an issue by not stopping for a proper lunch break during the warmer months. When asked by a Work Safe inspector 10 years ago for my opinions on what we could do to help keep fallers safe i mentioned a proper lunch break and the fact that more town contractors were promoting the "no lunch and lets get back to town sooner" program. The inspector stated that it was beyond the scope of Work Safe BC to mandate lunch breaks and that it was up to the discretion of individual contractors. I have been out of the industry for awhile so i am not aware if the LETS NOT TAKE LUNCH BREAKS for fallers program expanded or has even been further discussed as a potential safety issue. Has there been any data collected on injuries or fatalities that have occurred in the afternoon from fallers who are being pressured or are willingly not stopping for a proper break during their falling day?

I just bought a set of FRS radios (Rocky talkies) and now disappointed to know you cannot use them to access RR channels. I'm not entirely sure why they've restricted the channels to require a paid license to access them for roads which a ton of people use strictly for recreation. Best thing i think is to SLOW down in blind corners, and to just pull over if you don't have a right of way. As you will never have everyone on this system if you have to pay for a separate radio and subscription, also good luck getting a van full of kids and calling out every km while listening to calls LOL. Also on a side note, I'm pretty sure most if not all recreational vehicles will evaporate in a head on with a logging truck, video is more for recreational user safety.

Thanks for uploading. Clutching hurts my knee and this information is helpful.

Wow informative great video

What an awesome job. I did small scale logging roads and love being in the wilderness building roads.

What if the area is soft. Do you lay logs and bury them. I know I did some cordwood road but for lighter vechicles. Would get expensive hauling in rock.

Man I would love to work on a project like that. I built roads and cut ins for small scale logging and would love to get involved in big professional jobs.

This is so helpful and informative! Thank you

Industry Canada: IT’S SUPER IMPORTANT TO USE THE RADIO PEOPLE CAN DIE. Also Resource Canada: Using an amateur radio/Baofeng is strictly prohibited.

Another great message about why Industry Canada needs to pull their heads out of their collective cornholes and eliminate the BS fee for land mobile radio. There should be no impediments to people being safer while travelling these roads. While they're at it, they need to expressly permit HAM operators to use these freq's while traveling the applicable road too. Canada's constant over regulation of everything is pure stupidity ans greed and it needs to stop.

This whole presentation is a great example of why Industry Canada needs to ditch their BS cash grab annual fee for these radios. It's clearly a compelling safety issue and any possible deterrent or impedence to people getting and using a radio must be removed.

❤❤ safety

Great content, many thanks! I never thought driving a car may cause knee pain, until experienced it myself. I wish good health to everyone!

Looking for job

that's why I don't live in Canada it's a bunch of bullshit and that we use murs radios because their license free for everybody to use in the US only NO Canadians allowed‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

What brand of eld is in this video?

So what's the main cause of death? Is it getting crushed by trees from other fallers? Maybe a new guy who makes a Dutchman or something?

Great video!

Hey I really appreciate this, man

EXTEND!!!

kinda think shoulder straps are important for the lower back as well. I don't know how people do not use the; I need them to keep my hips from getting tired....take them off for the last 100 trees only.

Also seems as if that many fatalities could have been lower if these truckers didn’t drive like psychopaths. This isn’t the Pikes peak bill climb race.

well, lots of good advice...I think the shovel is too short; means having to be bent over more, but I use a staff so I am biased already. padded glove on the shovel handle, glove with hockey tape on the tree hand...maybe not biomechanics but padded shovel hand is kind of a requirement for me. After a box of trees her tree hand will be pretty bloody and beat up. Nothing here about using your foot-leg-body weight to open a hole. Big muscles in your legs, much bigger than your arms.

Tried that and reciprocating saw at our shop… both seem to melt the lexan while it cuts… jams it up

Good to see updated content, rather than 14 years ago, how about carry a cordless grinder behind the seat for self extraction ? - similar idea,

Pistol butt trees and dirty water flow, good information

I personaly think that anybody. I repeat anybody who applys for a class one operaters permit. Must. Must. Show that they can put on truck chains right. It should be a requirerment to obtain your class one. You fail to prove you can do it. No. License. Driver instrutors must have perfect knowledge of chaining up procedgers. This requirment is most amied at class one hiway drivers but is needed for all drivers. There is too many uneducated hiway drivers with class ones.

Why did the frequencies get removed from the signs? Now it's just a channel # - which makes it a guessing game/too difficult for the average FSR user that is not licensed to listen and pay attention to where the traffic is.

Thank you !!!
