Limbing a Tree
Never limb a tree when the limb is above shoulder height as
this may cause you to lose control of the chain saw.
Examine the Tree
Evaluate a fallen tree to ensure that it is not
lodged in another tree and not fallen
completely to the ground. These are
potentially dangerous and best left to a
professional.
Check for the following danger signals:
Are smaller trees trapped by the tree to be limbed?
Is the tree to be limbed totally and safely laying on the
floor?
Is the tree to be limbed on level ground?
Is there debris on the tree to be limbed that may fall on
you during the procedure?
Once you have removed all obstacles and
potentially dangerous debris then stand
uphill to the tree to be limbed. If you stand
downhill and free a limb this may then allow
the rest of the tree to roll onto you.
