Next, you need to make a 45-degree angle cut upwards, to meet the end of your first cut. When you’ve established which way your tree is going to fall, on the side that the tree will fall, make a horizontal cut about a 1/3 into the tree no higher than your hip. If weather conditions are not ideal, come back another day. You will need to make sure you have a clear area/pathway for you to move out of the way of the tree once it starts to fall – you want to stand well clear of the tree in case it lands on another tree as it falls and kicks back or doesn’t fall as your thought it would (ideally you will have avoided this by checked there is nothing in the surrounding area the falling tree could damage.)ĭO NOT cut trees down on windy days. It is best to check which direction the tree is leaning, and cut it so it falls down in the same direction that it leans.
