It was set to be a requirement on all hydraulic fed machines. Then there was a big by many of the tree services. The bigger companies banded together to talk with worksafe as well as people like myself phoning in and giving our opinion. In the end WorksafeBC decided put mandatory compliance on hold to review their decision, at least that's what I heard last week.

My chipper should be here early next week. Just got the frame for the box welded on my truck today.
