Electric Chain Saw
8
If the user does not balance out the force of
the saw chain pushing backwards with his or
her bodily force, there is a danger that only
the tip of the saw rail will make contact with
the wood and there will thus be a rebound.
Felling a tree
DANGER!
Risk of injury!
Felling and delimbing work may only be per-
formed by trained people!
There is a risk of fatal injuries!
Before beginning the felling work, make sure
that:
– There are no people or animals in the fell-
ing area.
– An evacuation route free of obstacles is
provided for each participant. The retreat
occurs diagonally opposite to the felling
direction.
– The area around the trunk is clear of ob-
stacles (risk of tripping!).
– The next workstation is at least two and a
half tree lengths away.
– Before felling, check the direction of the
felling of the tree and make sure that there
are no objects, people or animals within
two and a half of the length of the tree.

Sawing technique
Pulling sawing
With this technique, sawing occurs with the
underside of the saw rail from above down-
wards. The saw chain thus pushes the device
forwards away from the user.This way, the
front edge of the device forms a support,
which catches the forces which arise on the
tree trunk when sawing.
With pulling sawing, the user has much more
control over the device and can avoid re-
bounds better.Therefore, this is the preferred
sawing technique.
Pushing sawing
With this technique, sawing occurs with the
upper edge of the saw rail from below up-
wards. The saw chain thus pushes the device
backwards towards the user. If the saw rail
twists, the device can fly towards the user
with great force.
