When the log is supported on one end, as illustrated in Figure BB.105, 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, as illustrated in Figure BB.106, cut 1/3
the diameter from the top (overbuck). by underbucking the lower 2/3 to meet the
first cut.
When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill side of the log, as illustrated
in Figure When “cutting through”, to maintain complete control release the cutting
pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing your grip on the chain saw
handles. Don’t let the chain contact the ground. After completing the cut, wait for
the saw chain to stop before you move the chain saw. Always stop the motor
before moving from tree to tree.
