HOW TO CUT A TREE CORRECTLY

Cutting down a tree, in addition to physical effort, requires technique. Likewise, it is something that can be done, but it must be planned carefully and have adequate equipment for your safety. In the case of inexperience, it is preferable not to try to fell very large trees.

 

PREPARATION

The first thing we have to do is know if we can cut down the tree we want . If the tree is in your garden or plot, it does not mean that we can cut it down.

Before "cutting our losses" we must first consult with the relevant local institutions, since a series of notifications or licenses are required which, if not requested, may entail high fines.

 

PLANNING

When you have the appropriate permits, it will be time to plan the felling . When going to the area it is important to be equipped with a helmet, gloves, acoustic protector, safety boots and protective pants.

Make sure you are accompanied in case something happens and that you have a mobile phone handy so that you can quickly request help.

Remember to check that you have enough fuel in the tank for felling, as it is very dangerous to run out of it during the maneuver.

First, we must analyze the natural fall path of the tree:

• - Are you leaning to one side?
• - Do their branches predominantly hang to a specific side?
• - Which way is the wind blowing?
• - How steep is the terrain?

In the case of not being clear about the direction of the fall, stay away from it and check it with a plumb line.

PRUNE THE TRUNK

Before we start to fell the tree, we must remove all the low branches that you can so that they do not disturb during the process.

Remember not to cut higher than your shoulders and not to stand directly behind the chainsaw. The trunk should always be between the person pruning and chainsaw .


 

CLEAR THE SAFETY ZONE

When we finish pruning the trunk, we will proceed to  clean the security zone. We must first clear the area around the planned drop area.

Afterwards, it is important to clear any obstacles  around the tree  and in a 45 degree zone behind the tree in both directions .

This step is essential  in case we must look for a quick escape route , so that we do not encounter any obstacle that hinders our passage.

 

HOW DO WE FELL THE TREE?

Stand behind the tree with your feet apart and rest your left shoulder against the trunk to be steady and steady.

Once positioned, direct the top of the front grip in the direction you want the tree to fall.

To knock down a tree in the right direction we must cut a kind of hinge in the trunk, which will direct the path of the tree.

In addition, we must cut a wedge on the side that we want the tree to fall.


Step 1
Cut in the lower part of the tree in a directional way respecting a 45 degree angle with respect to the horizontal of the trunk as shown in the previous diagram.

It should be about 1/4 to  1/5 of the diameter deep . In this step remember to hold  the front handle of the chainsaw.

Once this is done, we will saw parallel to the ground, closing the shape of the wedge.

Step 2
Next we will cut, on the opposite side to the first step, a felling line 2 centimeters above the cutting point. It is essential to leave a distance or hinge between the cut and the felling line.

Step 3
To ensure the direction of fall , we will use a wedge with a hammer or knockdown lever on the felling line. This will prevent the tree from falling backwards.

 

TREE GOES!

When the cuts are complete, put the chainsaw on the ground and raise the felling lever or drive the wedge further to bring the tree down. According to the tree falls, we must move away to the side and back, so that the roots do not rise hit.

Planning to cut down a tree

If the tree gets stuck against another tree , you can use a winch to free it. This task is complex and very dangerous, it is only suitable for professionals, ask for help by phone while you watch the tree. It is very important never to leave a half-cut tree unattended .

If the tree is rotten, felling in the natural direction of the tree's fall and using a winch if you are unsure. Rot usually affects the higher areas of the tree less, so one option would be to tear it down leaving a stump that is taller than normal.

Remember that it is important, for safety, to try to cut down a tree if it is very windy to prevent it from knocking it down and causing possible damage.
