ABSTRACT:
A load handling device for arborists attachable temporarily to a tree trunk for lowering severed tree limbs and main stems including a base having a cross member and a vertical member. An elongated leg protrudes from the cross member and frictionally engages the tree trunk. A cylindrical member is mounted on the vertical member above the elongated tree gripping leg and is positioned with its longitudinal axis generally at right angles to the base member. The rope used to lower the severed tree limb is wrapped about the cylindrical member. An upper flange is connected to the vertical member above the cylindrical member and protrudes from the base a greater distance than the tree gripping leg so that the cylindrical member is tipped with its longitudinal axis at an angle below a horizontal plane. The device is frictionally held to the tree trunk by an elongated flexible member such as a strap. Cinching means mounted on the cross member holds the flexible member securely to the tree.
