What to know locally in North West
Tool hire shops in Rustenburg, Klerksdorp and Potchefstroom rent chainsaws, chippers and walk-behind stump grinders, usually by the day. Farmers along the N4 and N14 often buy a larger petrol saw for windbreak and thorn work. Thorn and gum blunt chains fast, so carry a file or a spare chain, and wear cut-resistant trousers and gloves.
What grows around North West
Much of North West is open thorn bushveld and maize land, broken by the Magaliesberg and the river valleys around Hartbeespoort, Brits and the Vaal. Farms often have long bluegum windbreaks and pepper trees round the homestead, while towns such as Potchefstroom and Rustenburg have older streets with mature exotic trees that have outgrown their pavements. Dry winters and hot summers stress trees, and summer storms then bring down weakened limbs. Smallholders and farmers ask for bush thinning, windbreak felling and clearing of stands, while homeowners in the dam and mining towns want trees off roofs and walls. Thorn trees near the Pilanesberg and Madikwe may include protected species, so check whether a tree is protected before you clear.
Typical chainsaw safety gear requests in the area come from:
- Farms, smallholdings and plantations: protective gear for farm workers cutting gums, wattle and firewood
- Homeowners: a helmet set and chaps for cutting up fallen branches and braai wood
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: kitting out the maintenance team who handle storm clean-up in the complex
Local tips for North West
Common here: felling bluegum windbreaks and thinning encroaching thorn bush on farms and plots. Ask each team or supplier about this: ask whether the wood can be cut into braai lengths and stacked on the farm. Where they work from: teams base in Rustenburg, Brits, Potchefstroom and Klerksdorp and travel to farms.
Chainsaw Safety Gear usually suits anyone running a chainsaw or pole saw, done like this: helmet set, trousers or chaps, boots, gloves. For farms, smallholdings and plantations, the biggest group here, that usually means protective gear for farm workers cutting gums, wattle and firewood. On the weather side: long dry winters stress trees; summer storms then drop the weakened limbs.
