Buttress roots
Conventional cut
First clear the tree base and work area
from interfering limbs and brush and
clean its lower portion with an axe.
If the tree has large buttress roots, cut
into the largest buttress vertically first
(horizontally next) and remove the
resulting piece.
A = felling notch - determines the
direction of the fall
For a conventional cut:
Then, establish two paths of escape (B)
and remove all obstacles. These paths
should be generally opposite to the
planned direction of the fall of the tree
(A) and about at a 45° angle. Place all
tools and equipment a safe distance
away from the tree, but not on the
escape paths.
:
Properly place felling notch
perpendicular to the line of fall,
close to the ground
:
Cut down at app. 45-degree angle
to a depth of about 1/5 to 1/4 of the
trunk diameter
:
:
Make second cut horizontal
