• Cutting a log supported at one end. The log is more than
likely to splinter if cut straight through from the top down.
- Make an initial cut from below (approx. 1/3 of the
diameter)
- Finish the cut from above.
• Cutting a log supported at both ends. The saw is more than
likely to jam in the kerf if cut straight through from above.
- Make an initial cut from the top (approx. 1/3 of the
diameter).
- Finish the cut from below.
• Cutting a log on the ground. There is little danger of the
saw jamming or the log splintering, but it is difficult to avoid
running the saw into the ground when breaking through at
the end of the cut.
Saw straight through the log. Be careful at the end of the
cut to avoid contact with the ground. Keep the saw running
at full speed, but be prepared for the breakthrough.
- If it is possible to turn the log, stop cutting 2/3
of the way through the log.
- Turn the log and cut the remaining section from above.
CROSSCUTTING
CAUTION!
If the chain becomes stuck in the
kerf, STOP THE SAW!
Do not attempt to jerk the saw free.
You could be harmed by the chain
if the saw suddenly comes loose.
Lever the saw free instead.
FELLING OPERATIONS
CAUTION!
Felling a tree is a job which calls for experience. Do not attempt to fell trees if you are
inexperienced. DO NOT CARRY OUT ANY OPERATIONS FOR WHICH YOU DO NOT
FEEL QUALIFIED!
CAUTION!
Beginning chain saw operators should gain experience cutting logs on a sawhorse or
similar arrangement.
CAUTION!
We advise operators without sufficient experience against felling trees with trunk
diameters exceeding their guide bar length.
