to decrease the tension. Cut at or near the point of
maximum tension. Make the tree or branch break at

cut a tree that is in tension. There is a
risk that the tree moves quickly before or
after you cut it. Serious injury can occur
if you are in an incorrect position or if
you cut incorrectly.

1 in. apart and with a depth of 2 in.
7. Continue to cut more into the tree until the tree/
branch bends and the tension is released.
8. Cut the tree/branch from the opposite side of the
bend, after the tension is released.
