Felling Cut for Large Diameter Trees
Sectioning Method
For the sectioning method make the first
part of the felling cut with the guide bar
fanning in toward the hinge. Then, using
the bumper spike as a pivot, reposition
the saw for the next cut.
Avoid repositioning the saw more than
necessary. When repositioning for the
next cut, keep the guide bar fully
engaged in the kerf to keep the felling
cut straight. If the saw begins to pinch,
insert a wedge to open the cut. On the
last cut, do not cut the hinge.
Plunge-cut Method
Timber having a diameter more than
twice the length of the guide bar requires
the use of the plunge-cut method before
making the felling cut.
First, cut a large, wide felling notch.
Make a plunge cut in the center of the
notch.
The plunge cut is made with the guide
bar nose. Begin the plunge cut by
applying the lower portion of the guide
bar nose to the tree at an angle. Cut until
the depth of the kerf is about the same
as the width of the guide bar. Next, align
the saw in the direction in which the
recess is to be cut.
With the saw at full throttle, insert the
guide bar in the trunk.
Enlarge the plunge cut as shown in the
illustration.
If you are inexperienced with a chain
saw, plunge-cutting should not be
attempted. Seek the help of a
professional.
Warning!
Felling a tree that has a diameter
greater than the length of the guide bar
requires use of either the sectioning fell
-
ing cut or plunge-cut method. These
methods are extremely dangerous
because they involve the use of the
nose of the guide bar and can result in
kickback. Only properly trained profes
-
sionals should attempt these
techniques.
