Virginia Training Day Four…

The trees are down… now what to do?

The class agenda today addresses the limbing and bucking of the fallen trees. The class was divided into teams and then given time to plan the work on six piles of storm debris.

It’s awesome to listen and then watch the process. You can learn so much from seeing how equipment operates, binds and pressures react and how the operators communicate and complete the tasks safely.

The objective:

  1. Saws that are sharp and operate correctly
  2. Sever the tree marks without getting stuck
