Limbing

Limbing is the designation for the sawing
off of branches and boughs from a felled
tree.
Many accidents occur during the
removal of branches. Never cut
tree limbs when you are standing
on the log. Keep the spring-back
area in mind if branches are un-
der tension.
• Do not remove support branches until
after the sawing off.
• Branches under tension must be
sawed from below to above, in order to
prevent jamming of the chainsaw.

When working on thicker branches,
use the same technique as when you
are sawing up a felled trunk.
• Work to the left of the log and as near
as possible to the electric chainsaw.
As far as possible, the weight of the
saw should rest on the log.
• Change position to saw off branches
on the other side of the trunk.
• Branches sticking out are cut off sepa-
rately.
