יב הַגְרָמָה כֵּיצַד, זֶה הַשּׁוֹחֵט בַּקָּנֶה לְמַעְלָה בְּמָקוֹם שֶׁאֵינוֹ רָאוּי לִשְׁחִיטָה, אוֹ שֶׁהִתְחִיל לִשְׁחֹט בִּמְקוֹם שְׁחִיטָה, וְשָׁחַט מְעַט וְהִטָּה הַסַכִּין חוּץ לִמְקוֹם שְׁחִיטָה לְמַעְלָה וּגְמָרָהּ שָׁם; אֲבָל שָׁחַט רֹב חֲלַל הַקָּנֶה בִּמְקוֹם שְׁחִיטָה, וְהִטָּה הַסַכִּין חוּץ לִמְקוֹם שְׁחִיטָה לְמַעְלָה, וְגָמַר שָׁם חֲתִיכַת כָּל הַקָּנֶה, כְּשֵׁרָה. וְהוּא הַדִּין אִם שָׁחַט רֹב שְׁנַיִם בִּבְהֵמָה בִּמְקוֹם שְׁחִיטָה, וְהִשְׁלִים הַשְּׁחִיטָה בְּהַגְרָמָה אוֹ בִּדְרָסָה, כְּשֵׁרָה; וְיֵשׁ מִי שֶׁפּוֹסֵל בִּדְרָסָה, וְיֵשׁ לָחוּשׁ לִדְבָרָיו לְכַתְּחִלָּה.

What is meant by “lifting up/tipping”? One slaughters the windpipe above the place that is not permitted for proper slaughter. Or if one begins to slaughter in a place permitted for proper slaughter and slaughters a little and inclines the knife outside of the place fit for slaughter from above and finishes there. However, if he slaughters most of the windpipe in a place fit for slaughter and inclines the knife outside a place fit for slaughter from above and finishes their, cutting the entire windpipe it is kosher. This is the law if he slaughters most of the two [signs] in cattle in a place fit for slaughter and completes the slaughter by doing “hagramah” or “dirasah” it is kosher. There are those [that say] this is not acceptable if it is by “dirasah” and there is concern in these matters ab initio.
