Operation

Cutting Branches

Thin branches can be cut off with one single cut. To
prevent the branch from slivering and buckling, the
branch should be cut off in several pieces.
When cutting off lager branches, you should first cut into
the branch form below. First cut into the branch from
below outside the place where you intend to cut off the
branch. The cut should go from one third to halfway
through the branch.
This prevents the branch from buckling when you cut
into the branch from the top outside the first cut.
Last, cut off the stump with one clean cut. You might
want to seal the cut with a suitable compound.
