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

branches, logs or wedges. Follow the
simple instructions for easy sowing.
1. Log is lying on the ground:
Saw through the log completely
from above and ensure at the
end of the cut not to contact the
ground.
If you can turn the tree trunk, saw
two-thirds of the way through it.
Then turn the trunk around and
saw the rest of the way through
from above.
2. Log is supported at one
end:
Start sawing from the bottom and
work your way up (with the up-
per edge of the bar) a third of the
way into the diameter of the trunk
to prevent splitting. Then saw
from the top downwards with the
lower edge of the bar towards

wood.

ends:
Start from the top and work down
