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.

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

fine saw dust comes out instead of chips.

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

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.

WARNING ▲ DANGER

NEVER USE THROTTLE LATCH FOR CUTTING JOB.

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 used the chain saw.
