Tête d’abattage réunissant à la fois divers outils de coupe, généralement une scie à chaîne et un sécateur, la combinaison ayant pour but de diminuer les fentes de la bille de pied tout en évitant le coincement de la scie. 1, record 2, French, - t%C3%AAte%20d%27abattage%20combin%C3%A9e
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
La tête d’abattage combinée convient particulièrement bien à la coupe d’arbres destinés au sciage, puisqu’elle diminue les fentes de la bille de pied lors du cisaillement. 1, record 2, French, - t%C3%AAte%20d%27abattage%20combin%C3%A9e
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Actuellement, la seule tête d’abattage combinée qui existe sur le marché comporte une scie à chaîne et un sécateur; aussi l’appellation tête d’abattage combinée est-elle suffisante. Cependant, comme d’autres combinaisons pourraient éventuellement se présenter, il faudrait alors adopter une appellation plus précise; par exemple : [...] tête d’abattage à chaîne-sécateur. 1, record 2, French, - t%C3%AAte%20d%27abattage%20combin%C3%A9e
