English
When the tree begins to fall remove the chainsaw from
the cut, stop the motor, put the chainsaw down, and use
the retreat path planned. Be alert for falling overhead
limbs and watch your footing.
Removing buttress roots
See
fi
g. 7 - 8.
A buttress root is a large root extending from the trunk of
the tree above the ground. Remove large buttress roots
prior to felling. Make the horizontal cut into the buttress
fi
rst,
followed by the vertical cut. Remove the resulting loose
section from the work area. Follow the correct tree felling
procedure after you have removed the large buttress roots.
Bucking a log
See
fi
g. 9 - 11.
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to make
sure your footing is
fi
rm and your weight is evenly distributed
on both feet. When possible, the log should be raised and
supported by the use of limbs, logs or chocks. Follow the
simple directions for easy cutting. When the log is supported
along its entire length, it is cut from the top (overbuck).
When the log is supported on one end, cut 1/3 the diameter
from the underside (underbuck). Then make the
fi
nished
cut by overbucking to meet the
fi
rst cut.
When the log is supported on both ends, cut 1/3 the
diameter from the top (overbuck). Then make the
fi
nished
cut by underbucking the lower 2/3 to meet the
fi
rst cut.
When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill side of
the log. To maintain control when “cutting through”, release
the cutting pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing
your grip on the chainsaw handles. Don’t let the chain
contact the ground. After completing the cut, wait for the
saw chain to stop before you move the chainsaw. Always
stop the motor before moving from tree to tree.
Limbing a tree
See
fi
g. 12 - 13.
Limbing is removing the branches from a fallen tree. When
limbing, leave larger lower limbs to support the log off the
ground. Remove the small limbs in one cut. Branches
under tension should be cut from the bottom up to avoid
binding the chainsaw.
Springpoles
See
fi
g. 14 - 15.
A springpole is any log, branch, rooted stump, or sapling
which is bent under tension by other wood so that it springs
back if the wood holding it is cut or removed.
On a fallen tree, a rooted stump has a high potential of
springing back to the upright position during the bucking
cut to separate the log from the stump. Watch out for
springpoles—they are dangerous.
WARNING!
Springpoles are dangerous and could strike the
operator, causing the operator to lose control of the
chainsaw. This could result in severe or fatal injury
to the operator. This should be done by trained
users.
ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY
WARNINGS
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of
fi
re, personal injury, and product
damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your
tool, battery pack or charger in
fl
uid or allow a
fl
uid
to
fl
ow inside them. Corrosive or conductive
fl
uids,
such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and
bleach or bleach-containing products, etc., can
cause a short circuit.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still
impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk
factors. The following hazards may arise in use and the
operator should pay special attention to avoid the following:
■
Injury caused by vibration
●
Always use the right tool for the job. Use designated
handles. Restrict working time and exposure.
■
Damage to hearing due to exposure to noise
●
Wear hearing protection and limit exposure.
■
Injury caused by contact with exposed saw teeth of the
chain
■
Injury caused by thrown-out pieces of the workpiece
(wood chips, splinters)
■
Injury caused by dust and particles
■
Injury to the skin caused by contact with lubricants
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome
in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling,
numbness, and blanching of the
fi
ngers, usually apparent
upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to
cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices
are all thought to contribute to the development of these
symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the
operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
■
Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating
the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm.
■
After each period of operation, exercise to increase
blood circulation.
