BASIC WORKING TECHNIQUES
40
1. Position yourself inside the bend.
2. Start to cut a V-cut on your side, inside the bend. Cut
up to 1/4 of the diameter of the trunk. Watch so the
saw does not get pinched.
3. Remaining on the inside of the bend, move the saw
over to the opposite side.
4. Cut slowly to reduce tension.
IMPORTANT!
To avoid pinching the saw when the first cut is made,
it is recommended to make a V-cut. Make it in small
steps as the illustration shows. This will cause the
tree to break slowly, giving you time to back out of
the way.
Small Trees and Limbs Under Tension
1. Always stay on the inside of the bend.
2. Make your cut at the breaking point.
3. If possible, cut along the tree/limb.
4. Cut slowly to relieve tension.
!
CAUTION!
Stay clear of tree/limb path.
5. If you must cut across tree/limb, make two to three
cuts, one inch apart, one to two inches deep.
6. Continue to cut deeper until tree/limb bends and
tension is released.
7. Cut tree/limb from outside the bend, after tension has
been released.
