Limbing
Once the tree has been felled, the trunk must be limbed: in other
words, the branches are removed from the trunk. Do not underesti-
mate this operation because the large majority of kickback accidents
occur during this stage. For this reason pay close attention to the po-
sition of the bar nose during cutting operations and always work on
the left hand side of the trunk.
