As we saw earlier, for keep our tree in perfect and optimal conditionsand for its development to be the best, it is important to prune it periodically, putting into practice cut maintenance. In the same way, after planting it, it is important to practice training pruning to ensure that its growth form will be the best.
However, to perform one of types of size As we have seen in other articles, it is important that we know the tools used to carry out this task. To pay particular attention to:
- One-handed pruner: This type of pruner is used to cut branches up to 2 centimeters in diameter.
- Two-handed pruner: This type of pruner is used to cut or prune branches up to 4 centimeters in diameter.
- Posts with mechanical or manual saw
- Pruning saws
- Mountain chain
- snake
- axes
- Chain saw
Keep in mind that in addition to the tools, it is vitally important that we take care of ourselves and protect ourselves by using protections such as a helmet, gloves and appropriate clothing (there are pants made with certain fibers which, when in contact with the chainsaw, cause the chainsaw to jam) to perform this task. If, for example, the case justifies it, we should also think about ropes, ladders, harnesses and other elements that can be of great help in ensuring our safety.
If you plan to prune your trees, I recommend getting high quality tools because cheap can be expensive. Also remember that all the tools we use must be very sharp, very clean and completely disinfected.
