First cut

1. Make the first cut 6 inches from the tree

trunk on the bottom of the limb. Use top of

guide bar to make this cut. Cut 1/3

through the diameter of the limb.

NOTE: When making the second and third

cuts, rest the foot of the pruner against the

tree limb that is being cut to prevent whipping

of the branch.

out on the limb and make a second cut all

the way through the limb.

-- 5 cm) inch collar from the trunk of the
