TRIMMING LIMBS (PRUNING)
WARNING:
Do not use the pole saw to cut limbs larger
than 4 inches (10 cm) in diameter.
WARNING:
Do not use a pole saw to fell a tree. Use a
standard chain saw for this application.
Trimming a tree is the process of cutting limbs from a living tree.
1. Run the unit at full speed.
2. Make the first cut approximately six inches (15 cm) from the tree
trunk. Cut upward, from the underside of the limb. Use the top
of the guide bar to make this cut. Cut a third of the way through
the diameter of the limb (Fig. 9).
3. Make the second cut two to four inches (5 - 10 cm) farther out
on the limb. Cut downward, from the top of the limb. Use the
bottom of the guide bar to make this cut. Cut completely
through the limb (Fig. 9).
4. Make the third cut as close to the tree trunk as possible. Cut
upward, from the underside of the limb stub. Use the top of the
guide bar to make this cut. Cut a third of the way through the
diameter of the limb (Fig. 9).
5. Make the fourth cut directly above the third cut. Cut downward,
from the top of the limb stub. Use the bottom of the guide bar to
make this cut. Cut completely through the limb stub to meet the
third cut (Fig. 9). This will remove the limb stub.
