The bow frame holds a thin blade under high tension to make a long, straight cut through tree branches and trunks.

Prepare Before Use<,strong>
• Check the blade for any teeth bent out of alignment which will get stuck on each pull. Adjust slighly with a pliers to align correctly.
• If your blade is dirty or sticky, old sap can be removed with soap or turpentine.
• Clear the area below the branch before cutting, as branches and stems may catch on the way down and make unpredictable movements.
• If your branch is high up or heavy, you may want to attach some rope to a higher branch to lower it more slowly. View the tree rigging video below for tips.

Tool Tips
• Make a small undercut of 1-2 inches depth below branches before removing, to prevent bark from peeling back as the heavy branch falls.
• Make long strokes to maximize your efficiency.
• Remember to clean the saw with a brush and water if needed before returning or storing.
