–
Be especially careful with small,
tough limbs, undergrowth and
offshoots – the saw chain may
become caught in them
–
Never cut several limbs at once
–
Do not lean too far forward
–
Do not cut above shoulder height
–
Use extreme caution when re-
entering a previous cut
–
Do not attempt plunge cuts if you
are not experienced in this cutting
technique
–
Be alert for shifting of the log or
other forces that may cause the cut
to close and pinch the chain
–
Always cut with a correctly
sharpened, properly tensioned saw
chain – the depth gauge setting
must not be too large
–
Use low-kickback saw chains as
well as narrow-radius guide bars
Pull-in (A)
When the chain on the bottom of the bar
– overbucking – is suddenly pinched,
caught or encounters a foreign object in
the wood, the chain saw may suddenly
be drawn forward toward the log – to
avoid this, engage the bumper spike
firmly in the wood.
Pushback (B)
When the chain on the top of the bar –
underbucking – is suddenly pinched,
caught or encounters a foreign object in
the wood, the chain saw may suddenly
be driven straight back toward the
operator – to avoid this:
–
Do not allow the top of the guide bar
to become jammed
–
Do not twist the guide bar in the cut
Sawing
Work calmly and carefully – in daylight
conditions and only when visibility is
good. Do not endanger others – stay
alert at all times.
Use the shortest possible guide bar: The
chain, guide bar and chain sprocket
must match each other and your saw.
Make certain that all parts of your body
are well clear of the extended range of
travel of the saw chain.
