- Corte superior: Make the main cut from the top of the branch, slightly further out from the undercut. Allow the saw to do the work; do not force it.
- Limb Removal: Cut limbs in sections if they are long or heavy to manage their fall safely.
- Evite Obstrucciones: Be aware of power lines, fences, and other obstructions.
