Living in the country, the ability to saw trees should be mastered and applied for two reasons. First, working in garden, it is necessary to cut off garden trees from time to time, forming their krone and rejuvenating thus fruit branches. And secondly, trees grow old, dry therefore they need to be moved away periodically. Cut, they can serve as fuel for bath or fireplace, and the shaving which has remained after cut of fruit trees excellently is suitable for smoking of meat or fish.
It is required to you
- Garden file, saw, chainsaw or power saw, personal protection equipment.
Instruction
1. Make the decision on partial cutting of tree or on its final disposal. If it is necessary to cut only part of branches, then for carrying out this operation with small branches it is enough to use garden file. During removal of such branch at its basis, you saw in any situation, available to you, - at once on ring, on top of ring flow. Here most of all active fabrics promoting fast overgrowing of wound. In order to avoid otlom, support branch by hand. If branch rather thick, then it is necessary to cut it in a different way as it can break off before end of cut.
2. Make has washed down from below large branch at distance 20-30 cm from its basis. You saw until jams file. Then make the second has washed down from above. Recede 3-5 cm further the first from the branch basis. When top has washed down will reach level lower, the branch will break off. It needs also to be held with hand that during sharp falling she has not broken the lower branches. After you pull out the cut branch from krone, cut stump on ring flow, avoiding sharp edge fins of bark. All these measures are taken in order that the wound at tree has dragged on as soon as possible.
3. Examine trunk and krone of that tree which needs to be cut entirely. Most likely, when cutting it will fall in that party in which there is small roll of trunk or where bigger quantity of massive branches. If the tree has no obvious inclination, then it can give the direction of falling independently. The place where the tree will fall, has to be free from other plants, buildings and, naturally, from presence of people at this moment.
4. Begin to do the first has washed down. It is made from that party in which the tree has to fall. In the bottom of trunk the small part is cut by wedge - on depth about 1/4 its diameters. Thus, two small scores towards each other are actually made for formation of wedge.
5. Make felling has washed down from the side of trunk, opposite to wedge. It is carried out at the level of corner of wedge or slightly above it. Length of this last has washed down about 2/3 diameters of trunk, this has washed down should not reach wedge corner from the opposite side somewhere on 5 cm. The tree has to fall towards wedge if to push it with hand.
6. Saw the fallen tree, having enclosed firm support under trunk. At first from it delete branches, and then saw trunk. If tree volume, it it is better to do by means of counter propil.
