chainsaw. Their size and

exibility can easily cause the

saw to bounce towards you or bind up with enough force
to cause a kickback. The best tool for that kind of work is
a hand saw, pruning shears, an axe or other hand tools.

Bucking a log

See page 349.

Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to
make sure your footing is

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

nished

cut by overbucking to meet the

rst cut.

When the log is supported on both ends, cut 1/3 the
diameter from the top (overbuck). Then make the

nished

cut by underbucking the lower 2/3 to meet the

rst cut.

When bucking on a slope, always stand on the uphill side
of the log. When “cutting through”, to maintain complete
control release the cutting pressure near the end of the cut
without relaxing your grip on the handles of the product.
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 engine before moving from tree
to tree.

Limbing a tree

See page 350.

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 product.

Springpoles

See page 350.

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. Do not attempt to cut
bent branches or stumps which are under tension unless
you are professionally trained and competent to do so.

Consequences of improper maintenance, removal, or
modification of safety features like the chain brake,
ignition switch, hand guard (front and back), spiked
bumper, chain catcher, guide bar, low-kickback saw
chain may cause the safety features to not function
correctly, thus increasing the potential for serious injury.
Keep the product professionally maintained and safe.

Sharpening the chain safely is a skilled task. Therefore,
the manufacturer strongly recommends that a worn or
