FELLING A TREE
WARNING:
Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs
and fingers encircling the handles, with both
hands on the product, and position your
body and arm to allow you to resist kickback
forces. Kickback forces can be controlled
by the operator, if proper precautions are
taken. Do not let go of the product.
WARNING:
Kickback may occur when
the nose or tip of the guide bar touches
an object, or when the wood closes in and
pinches the saw chain in the cut.
WARNING:
Plan and clear an escape path
before starting cuts. The escape path should
extend back and diagonally to the rear of the
expected line of fall.
1.
Make the notch 1/3 the diameter of the
tree, perpendicular to the direction of the
fall.
Make the felling back cut at least 5 cm (2
in.) higher than the horizontal notching
cut. Keep the felling back cut parallel to
the horizontal notching cut. Make the
felling back cut so enough wood is left to
act as a hinge.
