Overbuck the branch to drop it.
Finish by cutting smoothly and neatly against the main member so the bark will grow
back to seal the wound.
WARNING
If the limbs to be pruned are above chest height, hire a professional to perform the
pruning.
CUTTING SPRINGPOLES
See Figure 35.
A springpole is any log, branch, rooted stump or sapling which is bent under tension by
other wood so that it springs back if the wood holding it is cut or removed. On a felled
tree, a rooted stump has a high potential of springing back to the upright position during
the bucking cut to separate the log from the stump. Watch out for springpoles — they
are dangerous.
WARNING
Springpoles are dangerous and could strike the operator, causing the operator to lose
control of the chainsaw. This could result in severe or fatal injury to the operator.
