under tension should be cut from the bottom up, to avoid
binding the chain saw.
BUCKING A LOG
See fi gure 12 - 15
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to
make sure your footing is fi rm and your weight is evenly
distributed on both feet. When possible, the log should be
raised and supported by the use of limbs, logs or chocks.
Follow the simple direction for easy cutting:
1. When the log is supported along the entire length, it is
cut from the top (over buck).
2. When the log is supported on one end, cut 1/3 of the
diameter from the underside (under buck). Then make
the fi nished cut by over bucking to meet the fi rst cut.
3. When the log is supported on both ends, cut 1/3 of
that diameter from the top (over buck). Then make the
fi nished cut by under bucking the lower 2/3 to meet
the fi rst cut.
4. When bucking on a slope, always stand on the up-
hill side of the log. When cutting through, to maintain
complete control, release the cutting pressure near the
end of the cut without relaxing your grip on the chain
saw handles.
Do not let the chain contact the ground. After completing
the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before you move
the chain saw. Always stop the motor before moving from
tree to tree.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Always remove the battery pack from the machine
before checking the chain tension or making

turn the chain tensioner adjustment knob (item
13) counterclockwise and check the chain tension
frequently.
The chain tension is correct when the gap between the
cutter in the chain and the bar is between 3mm-4mm.
Pull the chain in the middle of the lower side of the
bar downwards (away from the bar) and measure the
distance between the bar and the chain cutters.

battery pack from he chain saw and slide the chain cover
over the bar and chain. If several cuts are to be performed
with he chain saw, the saw must be switch off between
