To make the directional cuts
1. Make the directional cuts ¼ of the diameter of the
tree. Make a 45°-70° angle between the top
directional cut and bottom directional cut.
45º-70º
a) Make the top directional cut. Align the felling
direction mark (1) of the product with the felling
direction of the tree (2). Stay behind the product
and keep the tree on your left side. Cut with a
pull stroke.
b) Make the bottom directional cut. Make sure that
the end of the bottom directional cut is at the
same point as the end of the top directional cut.

2. Make sure that the bottom directional cut is
horizontal and at a 90° angle to the felling direction.
To use the safe corner method
The felling cut must be made slightly above the
directional cut.
WARNING: Be careful when you cut with the
guide bar tip. Start to cut with the lower
section of the guide bar tip as you make a
bore cut into the trunk.
1. If the usable cutting length is longer than the tree
diameter, do these steps (a-d).
a) Make a bore cut straight into the trunk to
complete the felling hinge width.
b) Cut on the pull stroke until ⅓ of the trunk is left.
c) Pull the guide bar 5-10 cm/2-4 in rearward.
d) Cut through the remaining of the trunk to
complete a safe corner that is 5-10 cm/2-4 in
wide.
2. If the usable cutting length is shorter than the tree
diameter, do these steps (a-d).
a) Make a bore cut straight into the trunk. The bore
cut must extend 3/5 of the tree diameter.
b) Cut on the pull stroke through the remaining
trunk.
c) Cut straight into the trunk from the other side of
the tree to complete the felling hinge.
d) Cut on the push stroke, until ⅓ of the trunk is left,
to complete the safe corner.
