[Leica] IMG: Preventive Maintenance

[Jim Nichols]

Over the years, I have, at various times, been responsible for 
Preventive Maintenance Programs.  Today, I had to practice that at home.

During the Winter, with no leaves on the oak trees, I noted a 
significant dead branch that extended over the power and fiber optic 
feeds into my house.  I waited for the tree to begin greening up to 
confirm my observations.  Today, I had the branch removed.  As the lift 
bucket moves into place, the vulnerable lines can be seen below it.

Once he got into place, the operator cut the dead wood into man-sized 
pieces and dropped them carefully to the ground.  The wires were never 
touched.
