Cutting
Felling trees
Decide about the direction in which the tree will fall,
respecting the wind direction, incline angle of the
tree and location of the branches, and consider all
other factors before cutting.
The area around the tree must be clear, without
obstacles, and must enable a stable stance. The
escape route must be passable.
Cut a wedge into one third of the tree’s diameter on
the side to which the tree should fall.
(see Fig. Felling, point 1)
From the opposite direction perform a separation
cut at a level above the wedge cut. (see Fig. Felling,
point 2)
The tree will fall in the direction towards the wedge cut. (see Fig. Felling, point 3)
ATTENTION!
When felling trees, inform other people in the area about the potential danger.
Felling trees requires experience and we do not recommend performing this task without the necessary
experience.
Cutting logs
ATTENTION!
Always maintain a stable stance. Do not step on logs.
ATTENTION!
Before starting work, check that all components are in their place and that all nuts and bolts
are tightened.
The log being cut may roll away. Especially when cutting on a slope, always stand above the log being cut.
Prevent kickback of the saw by following the instructions in chapter “Safety instructions”.
Before starting work, assess the direction of the force causing the cut trunk to bend. The fi nal cut needs to
always be done from the opposite side of where the bending force is acting to prevent the guide bar from
being clamped inside the cut.
Only carry the chain saw with the engine turned off and the guide bar protected by the protective cover.
Log lying on the ground
Cut it halfway through, then roll it over and
complete the cut from the other side.
