Relieving cut
: To avoid kickback, pinching the bar
or tearing the bark when pruning
thick branches, always start by
performing a relieving cut (1) on the
underside of the branch.
: To do this, apply the cutting
attachment and pull it across the
bottom of the branch as far as the
bar nose.
: Locate the hook against the branch
and then perform the cross-cut (2).
Flush-cutting thick branches
: If branch diameter is more than 4“
(10cm), first perform undercut (3)
and then cross-cut at a distance of
about 8“ (20cm) (A) from the final
cut.
Then carry out the flush-cut (4),
starting with a relieving cut and
finishing with a cross-cut.
Cutting above obstacles
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.
