Cordless Chain Saw EN

a manner that would endanger any person,

strike any utility line or cause any property

damage. If the tree does make contact with

any utility line, the company should be

notiﬁed immediately.

The chain saw operator should keep on the

uphill side of the terrain as the tree is likely to

roll or slide downhill after it is felled.

An escape path should be planned and

cleared as necessary before cuts are started. The

escape path should extend back and diagonally

to the rear of the expected line of fall.

Before felling is started, consider the

natural lean of the tree, the location of larger

branches and the wind direction to judge

which way the tree will fall.

Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails staples,

and wire from the tree.

Notching undercut: Make the notch (x-w)

1/3 the diameter of the tree, perpendicular

to the direction of falls as make the lower

horizontal notching cut ﬁrst. This will help to

avoid pinching either the saw chain or the

guide bar when the second notch is being

made.

Felling back cut: Make the felling back cut

(Y) at least 50 mm higher than the horizontal

notching cut. Keep the felling back cut parallel

to the horizontal notching cut. Make the felling

back cut so enough wood is left to act as a

hinge. The hinge wood keeps the tree from

twisting and falling in the wrong direction. Do

not cut through the hinge.

As the felling gets close to the hinge the tree

should begin to fall. If there is any chance

that the tree may not fall in desired direction

or it may rock back and bind the saw chain,

stop cutting before the felling back cut is

complete and use wedges of wood, plastic, or

aluminum to open the cut and drop the tree

along the desired line of fall.

When the tree begins to fall remove the chain

saw from the cutting, stop the motor, put the

chain saw down, and then use the retreat path

planned. Be alert for overhead limbs falling

and watch your footing.

To complete the felling operation, drive a

wedge (Z) into the horizontal cut.

Beware of falling branches when the tree

starts to move.

LIMBING A TREE (See Fig. Q)

Limbing is removing the branches from a fallen

tree. When limbing leave larger lower limbs

to support the log off the ground. Remove the

small limbs in one cut as illustrated. Branches

under tension should be cut from the bottom

up to avoid binding the chain saw.

BUCKING A LOG (See Fig. R)

Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is

important to make sure your footing is ﬁrm

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 directions for easy

cutting.

When the log is supported along its entire as

illustrated, it is cut from the top (overbuck).

When the log is supported on one end,

as illustrated, cut 1/3 the diameter from

the underside (underbuck). Then make the

ﬁnished cut by overbucking to meet the ﬁrst

cut. (See Fig. S)

When the log is supported on both ends, as

illustrated, cut 1/3 the diameter from the top

(overbuck). Then make the ﬁnished cut by

underbucking the lower 2/3 to meet the ﬁrst

cut. (See Fig. T)

WARNING: (See Fig. U)

• If on slope, make sure log will not

roll down hill. Secure log by using

wooden stakes. Drive wooden stakes

into ground on downhill side of log.

Stand on uphill side of log while

cutting. Log may roll after cutting.

• Never try cutting through two logs

at same time. This could increase the

risk of kickback.

• While cutting log, never hold log with

your hand, leg, or foot.

• While cutting log, never allow another

person to hold log.

• Turn off and remove the battery pack

from the saw before moving from one

place to another.
