saw chain or the guide bar when the
second notch is being made.
Felling back cut
1). Make the felling back cut 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.
2). 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.
3).
When the tree begins to fall
remove the product from the cut,
stop the motor, put the product
down, then use the retreat path
planned. Be alert for overhead
limbs falling and watch your
footing.
Limbing and pruning
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. Branches under
tension should be cut from the bottom
up to avoid binding the product.
Bucking a log
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 length, it is cut from the top
(overbuck)
When the log is supported on one
end, cut 1/3 the diameter from the
underside (underbuck). Then make
the finished cut by overbucking to
meet the first cut.
When the log is supported on both
ends, 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.
When bucking on a slope always
