TENSION AND COMPRESSION IN TIMBER
A length of timber lying on the ground will be subject to
tension and compression depending at which points the
major support is.
When timber is supported at its ends the compression
side is at the top and the tension side is at the bottom.
To cut between these support points make the first cut
downwards approximately 1/3rd the timber diameter.
The second cut is made upwards and should meet the
first cut.When the timber is supported at one end only
make the first cut upwards approximately 1/3rd the timber
diameter. The second cut is made downwards and should
meet the first cut.
CAUTION
If you have misjudged the effects of tension and
compression, and cut from the wrong side, the
timber will pinch the guide bar and chain, trapping it.
Racing the engine with the chain jammed will burn out
your clutch.
If the chain should become jammed and the saw
can not be removed from the cut do not force it out.
Stop the saw, force a wedge into the cut to open it up.
Never force the saw when it is jammed. Do not force the
saw into the cut. A dull chain is unsafe and will cause
excessive wear to the cutting attachments. A good way to
tell when the chain is dull is when fine saw dust comes
out instead of chips.
CAUTION
Do not touch hot surfaces of cylinder cover and silencer,
after you have used the chain saw.
WARNING
Never use throttle latch for cutting jobs.

A length of timber lying on the ground will be
subject to tension and compression depending
at which points the major support is.
When timber is supported at its ends the
compression side is at the top and the tension
side is at the bottom. To cut between these
support points make the first cut downwards
approximately 1/3rd the timber diameter.
The second cut is made upwards and should
meet the first cut.
When the timber is supported at one end only
make the first cut upwards approximately 1/3rd
the timber diameter. The second cut is made
downwards and should meet the first cut.
CAUTION
If you have misjudged the effects of tension and
compression, and cut from the wrong side, the
timber will pinch the guide bar and chain,
trapping it. Racing the engine with the chain
jammed will burn out your clutch.
If the chain should become jammed and the saw
can not be removed from the cut do not force
it out. Stop the saw, force a wedge into the cut
to open it up. Never force the saw when it is
jammed. Do not force the saw into the cut.
A dull chain is unsafe and will cause excessive
wear to the cutting attachments.
A good way to tell when the chain is dull is when
fine saw dust comes out instead of chips.
CAUTION
Do not touch hot surfaces of cylinder cover and
silencer, after you have used the chain saw.
WARNING DANGER
Never use throttle latch for cutting jobs.
