A portable and remotely controlled motor and chain/bar apparatus that can trim limbs in excess of about 60 feet from the ground level in an extremely safe manner. An operator on the ground can remove a limb from a safe distance exceeding about 50 feet from where the limb would fall or be lowered to the ground. A motorized chain/bar assembly is secured to a small platform which can easily be lifted for tree delimbing. For safety and stability, the chain/bar cutting platform is secured to all sides of the limb to be cut. Once in position, the operator by applying power to the unit, starts the cycle as the motor chain/bar carriage travels to the top of the platform, the motor/chain/bar rotates from a vertical to a horizontal position and as the motor chain/bar is engaged it travels in a downward motion towards the lower section of the platform creating the pressure required to complete the delimbing process. The bar/chain delimbs at a horizontal position therefore eliminating the common pinching or binding of the bar/chain by the branch during the cutting process.
