Pruning
Pruning is the removal of a limb or branch
from a standing tree.
Limbing
Limbing is the process of removing the
branches from a fallen tree. Check the
direction in which a branch will bend before
cutting it. Always cut on the opposite side
to the bending direction so that the guide
bar is not pinched in the cut. For large limbs
that cannot be removed in one cut, make an
initial cut from the bent side and finish by
sawing from the opposite direction. Do not
remove limbs that are supporting the fallen
tree on the ground until the tree has been
cut into lengths.
WARNING!
NEVER USE THE POLE PRUNER WHEN STANDING ON A
LADDER OR UNEVEN GROUND. DO NOT OVERREACH. ALWAYS USE
BOTH HANDS TO HOLD THE POLE PRUNER.
