L'élagage peut être effectué avec des outils tranchants (serpes). Pour être bien fait, il demande alors une grande habileté. En l'absence de main-d'œuvre qualifiée on obtient des meilleurs résultats en utilisant des scies spéciales sur bâti métallique avec possibilité d'adapter à l'extrémité des manches tubulaires [...] C'est ainsi qu'une scie à élaguer les peupliers (lame de 60 cm) munie de deux éléments de manches de 1,5 m chacun, [...] permet d'élaguer depuis le sol jusqu'à environ 6 m de hauteur. 4, record 1, French, - scie%20%C3%A0%20%C3%A9laguer
