Bucking A Log
Bucking or cross-cutting is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to make sure your footing is
firm 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.
1. Follow the simple directions for easy cutting. When the log is supported along its entire length
(see below image 1), it is cut from the top (over buck).
2. When the log is supported on one end (see below image 2), cut 1/3 the diameter from the un-
derside (under buck). Then make the finished cut by over-bucking to meet the first cut.
3. When the log is supported on both ends (see below image 1), cut 1/3 the diameter from the top
(over buck). Then make the finished cut by under bucking the lower 2/3 to meet the first cut.
4. When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill side of the log (figure below image 2).
When “cutting through”, to maintain complete control release the cutting pressure near the end of
the cut without relaxing your grip on the product handles. Don’t let the chain contact the ground.
After completing the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before you move the product. Always
stop the motor before moving from tree to tree.
5. Support small logs on a sawing stand or another log while bucking (see below image 1).
6. If the wood diameter is large enough for you to insert a soft bucking wedge without
touching the chain, you should use the wedge to hold the cut open to prevent pinching (see
below image 2).
