Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A chainsaw provides the cleanest cut when you’re dealing with limbs thicker than 3 inches. If your pruning job requires a chainsaw, it’s recommended that you contact a certified arborist. A pole pruner allows you to cut branches that are beyond your reach. Most pole pruners cut limbs up to 2 inches in diameter.
Detailed explanation-2: -A gas-powered chainsaw with a bar length of 20 inches or more is most effective for felling large hardwood trees such as oak, spruce, birch, beech and hemlock, many of which can be 30 – 36 inches in diameter.
