main limb or trunk before making the cut.
NOTE: Make a shallow first cut (1/4 of limb

main limb or trunk. Then, make a second cut from
the top side of the limb outboard from the first cut.
Lastly, make a final cut close to trunk. For second
and final cuts (from top of limb or branch), hold the
bucking spikes against the limb being cut. Allow
chain to cut for you; exert only light downward
pressure.
