Relieving cut
Flush-cutting thick branches
Cutting above obstacles
:
:
:
To avoid tearing the bark on thick
branches, always start by
performing a relieving cut (1) on the
underside of the branch.
:
If branch diameter is more than
4“ (10 cm), firstperform undercut(3)
and then cross-cut at a distance (A)
of about 8“ (20 cm) from the final
cut.
Then carry out the flush-cut (4),
starting with a relieving cut and
finishing with a cross-cut.
The unit's long reach makes it possible
to prune branches that are overhanging
obstacles, such as rivers or lakes.
The tool angle in this case depends on
the position of the branch.
To do this, apply the cutting
attachment and pull it in an arc
across the bottom of the branch
(see illustration).
Locate the hook against the branch
and then perform the cross-cut (2).
