Q
3. Cutting.notch.(A):
Make a felling notch in the direc-
tion in which you wish the tree to
fall. Start with the bottom, hori-
zontal cut. The cut depth should
be around 1/3 of the trunk diam-
eter. Now make a slanted saw
cut from above at an angle of
roughly 45° to meet exactly with
the bottom saw cut.

Q
4.. Felling.back.cut..(B):
Make the back cut from the other
side of the log, where you stand
to the left of the log and saw with
the chainsaw pulling. The back
cut must run horizontally 5 cm
above the horizontal notched cut.
The back cut should be so deep
that the separation distance be-
tween the back cut and the notch
cutting line is at least 1/10 of the
trunk diameter. The part of the
log not sawed through is desig-
nated as a break dimension.
R
Insert a felling wedge or a crow-
bar into the back cut, as soon as
the depth of cut permits this, in
order to prevent a jamming of the
chain bar.
S
5. If the trunk diameter is larger than
the length of the chain bar, make
two cuts.

Cleaning
• Clean the machine thoroughly after
every use. In this way, you extend the
life of the machine and avoid acci-
dents.
• Keep the gripping handles free of pet-
rol, oil or grease. Clean the gripping
handles, where appropriate, with a
moist cloth soaked in soap. Use no sol-
vents or petrol for cleaning!
