LIMBING AND PRUNING

WARNING: Be alert for and guard

against kickback. Do not allow the moving

chain to contact any other branched or objects

at the nose of the guide bar when limbing or

pruning. Allowing such contact can result in

serious injury.

WARNING: Neverclimbintoatreeto

limb or prune. Do not stand on ladders, plat-

forms, a log, or in any position which can cause

you to lose your bal ance or control of the saw .

IMPORTANT POINTS

S Watch out for springpoles. Use extreme

caution when cutting small size limbs. Slen-

der material may catch the saw chain and be

whipped toward you or pull you off balance.

S Be alert for springback. Watch out for

branches that are bent or under pressure.

Avoid being struck by the branch or the

saw when the tension in the wood fibers is

released.

S Keep a clear work area. Frequently clear

branches out of the way to avoid tripping

over them.

LIMBING

S Always limb a tree after it is cut down. Only

then can limbing be done safely and prop-

erly.

S Leave the larger limbs underneath the

felled tree to support the tree as you work.

S Start at base of the felled tree and work to-

ward the top, cutting branches and limbs.

Remove small limbs with one cut.

S Keep the tree between you and the chain

as much as possible.

S Remove larger, supporting branches with

the cutting techniques described in BUCK-

ING WITHOUT A SUPPORT.

S Always use an overcut to cut small and

freely hanging limbs. Undercutting could

cause limbs to fall and pinch saw.

PRUNING

WARNING: Limit pruning to limbs

shoulder height or below. Do not cut if

branches are higher than your shoulder . Get

a professional to do the job.

S Make your fist cut

1/3 of the way through

the bottom of the limb.

S Next make a 2nd cut all the way through

the limb. Then cut a third overcut leaving

a 1 to 2 inch collar from the trunk of the tree.
