UTILISATION

Pendant l’élagage d’un arbre, il est important de ne pas faire la coupe au ras de la branche principale ou du tronc avant d’avoir sectionné la branche à couper plus en aval afin de diminuer le poids de la branche. Cela évite aussi d’arracher l’écorce du tronc de l’arbre. Faire la première entaille jusqu’au tiers du diamètre de la branche, à partir du dessous.Ladeuxièmecoupe,effectuée à partir du dessus, devrait sectionner la branche et la faire tomber. Faire maintenantlacoupefinale,lisseetnette, au ras du tronc afin que l’écorce repousse et vienne couvrir la plaie.

OPERACIÓN

Cuando esté podando árboles, es importante que no efectúe un corte a nivel justo al lado de la rama principal o del tronco hasta que haya cortado la rama más hacia afuera con el fin de reducir el peso. Esto evita el desprendimiento de la corteza del árbol. Corte el tronco por la parte inferior 1/3 del diámetro en su primer corte, el segundo corte debería ser por la parte superior para que caiga la rama. Ahora asegúrese de hacer su corte de finalización de forma suave y uniforme contra el miembro principal de manera que vuelva a crecer la corteza para cerrar la abertura dejada.
