Safety tips for Bacchus Marsh tree removal
When it comes to Bacchus Marsh tree removal, it’s important to start planning well before the chainsaw begins to roar.
In fact, there are so many important safety elements to consider that it makes sense to call in an expert arborist from B&B Trees to carry out the work for you in a professional manner, at an affordable price.
Whether you are removing a tall gum or a large shade tree from beside your house, it pays to get your safety checks ticked off so the job can be completed without risk to people, equipment and buildings. And, once the job begins, you must be on high alert during the whole tree removal process.
Safety tips include:
- Looking up can be a lifesaver. Make sure your equipment and the falling tree are not in danger of impacting on any nearby powerlines. Checking for powerline hazards is just one key part of your overall comprehensive hazard assessment of the site before you start work.
- Assess the weather before beginning the job. If the weather increases the element of danger – such as high wind or rain – then reschedule or wait until conditions improve.
- Make sure you have all the correct personal safety gear. Gear includes hard hats, safety glasses and ear protection.
- Check whether your equipment including ladders and chainsaws is adequate and in good condition. And take great care with their use around the tree.
- Work out which way you will fell the tree, keeping falling branches and the trunk away from buildings and other property.
- And never take your eyes off the tree.
