WARNING: Never walk in front of a tree that has been notched. Make the

felling cut (D) from the other side of the tree and 1.5 - 2.0 inches (3-5 cm)

above the edge of the notch (C) (Fig. 11b)

Never saw completely through the trunk. Always leave a hinge. The hinge guides the tree. If

the trunk is completely cut through, control over the felling direction is lost.

Insert a wedge or felling lever in the cut well before the tree becomes unstable and starts to

move. This will prevent the guide bar from binding in the felling cut if you have misjudged the

falling direction. Make sure no bystanders have entered the range of the falling tree before you

push it over.

Warning: before making the final cut, always recheck the area for

bystanders, animals or obstacles.

Felling cut:.

 Use wooden or plastic wedges (A) to prevent binding the bar or chain (B) in the cut.

Wedges also control felling (Fig. 11c).

 When diameter of wood being cut is greater than the bar length, make 2 cuts as shown

(Fig. 11d).

WARNING: As the felling cut gets close to the hinge, the tree should begin

to fall. When tree begins to fall, remove saw from cut, stop engine, put

chain saw down, and leave area along retreat path (Fig. 11a).

10.8.2 Limbing

 Limbing a tree is the process of removing the branches from a fallen tree. Do not remove

supporting limbs until after the log is bucked (cut) into lengths (Fig. 12).

 Branches under tension should be cut from the bottom up to avoid binding the chain saw

WARNING: Never cut tree limbs while standing on tree trunk.

10.8.3 Bucking

Bucking is cutting a fallen log into lengths. Make sure you have a good footing and stand uphill

of the log when cutting on sloping ground. If possible, the log should be supported so that the

end to be cut off is not resting on the ground. If the log is supported at both ends and you must

cut in the middle, make a downward cut halfway through the log and then make the undercut.

This will prevent the log from pinching the bar and chain. Be careful that the chain does not cut

into the ground when bucking as this causes rapid dulling of the chain. When bucking on a

slope, always stand on the uphill side.

 Log supported along entire length: Cut from top (overbuck), being careful to avoid cutting

into the ground (Fig. 13a).

 Log supported on 1 end: First, cut from bottom (underbuck) 1/3 diameter of log to avoid

splintering. Second, cut from above (overbuck) to meet first cut and avoid pinching (Fig.

13b).
