  3. Always Remember
    1. Wear soft soled composition shoes if climbing a tree is necessary. Otherwise safety shoes are recommended. Composition soles will provide better traction.
    2. Ladder should be placed against sturdy limbs or tree trunk. Wide based ladders will provide greater stability.
    3. When removing limbs several cuts will allow safer handling of each piece rather than removing limbs in large sections. Lowering large diameter limbs with a rope may be safer than letting them fall.
    4. It is advisable that tree trimmers work with at least one other person. The ground person can assist the trimmer with limb removal and provide other help as needed.
    5. All tools should be in proper working order and sharpened appropriately. Blade guards should always be in place when the tool is not in use.
    6. If electric pruners are used, several items need to be considered:
      1. The tool must be in proper working order.
      2. Ground plugs must always be used.
      3. Avoid using these tools if conditions are wet, or if the ground is wet.
      4. Use wooden or fiberglass ladders when using electric pruners.
    7. When climbing a tree, a safety belt should be used when making cuts. A trail rope can be used to raise and lower tools.
    8. Clothing should be of a strong material that resists tear, and loose fitting for comfort and mobility. Heavy work gloves protect the hands and eye protection is critical. A hard hat is beneficial when working with a long handled pruner. However, head covering may be easily lost if the trimmer has to climb the tree.
    9. Chain saws are potentially the most dangerous tool the trimmer will use. The following items must be closely adhered to:
      1. Be properly trained in the use of chain saws and read operating manuals.
      2. Make sure that the saw is in proper working order and is sharp.
      3. Store gasoline in proper containers and never smoke when filling the saw with fuel or when operating the saw. Never start the chain saw within ten feet of the filling area. If fuel is spilled on clothing, do not start or operate the saw until clothing has been changed.
      4. Always wear proper safety equipment including eye and ear protection when operating the chain saw.
      5. Keep the saw away from the body at all times.
      6. Avoid making the type of cuts that will pinch the saw or cause it to kick back.
      7. Be particularly careful when using the saw while in the tree or from a ladder.
      8. Never use a chain saw when over tired.
      9. Never operate a chain saw in an enclosed area. Exhaust fumes are dangerous.
