CUTTING A FALLEN TREE

(BUCKING)

Bucking is the term used for cutting a fallen

tree to the desired log length.

WARNING: Do not stand on the log

being cut. Any portion can roll causing loss

of footing and control. Do not stand downhill

of the log being cut.

Important points

S Cut only one log at a time.

S Cut shattered wood very carefully; sharp

pieces ofwoodcould beflung toward oper-

ator.

S Use a sawhorse to cut small logs. Never

allow another person to hold the log while

cutting and never hold the log with your leg

or foot.

S Do not cut in an area where logs, limbs,

and roots are tangled. Drag the logs into a

clear area before cutting by pulling out ex-

posed and cleared logs first.

TYPES OF CUTTING USED FOR

BUCKING

WARNING:If saw becomes pinched

or hung in a log, don’t try to force it out. You

can lose control of the saw resulting in injury

and/or damage to the saw . Stop the saw,

drive a wedge of plastic or wood into the cut

until the saw can beremoved easily. Restart

the saw and carefully reenter the cut. Do not

attempttorestartyour saw when it ispinched
