ABSTRACT:
This invention pertains to apparatus for trimming branches of trees and particularly branches high above the ground, without a pole saw, climbing the tree or using a ladder. The apparatus include spaced cutting links with sharp teeth at one end fastened upon a flexible chain. Each end of the chain is connected to a length of rope. A metal weight, sand bag, etc. attached to one of the ropes carries the flexible chain into position over the branch desired to be cut. A counter weight is also provided on one end of the flexible chain to automatically position the cutting side of the spaced cutting links in a downward facing, cutting position as the chain is pulled up onto and over the branch.
