CS-4510 OPERATION

Don’t cut with the saw overhead or

aligned vertically with your body. If the

saw should kickback, you may not

have enough control to prevent

possible injury.

Bucking

Bucking is the sawing of a log or

fallen tree into smaller pieces. There

are a few basic rules which apply to

all bucking operations.

• Keep both hands on the handles at

all times.

• Support logs if possible.

• When cutting on a slope or hillside,

always stand uphill.

Keep in mind that the wood is heavy

and that it will bend and pinch the

saw if improperly supported. The

trunk will weaken at the point where

you make the cut unless the tree is

lying on perfectly flat ground or

supported as shown. If you make the

cut with the tree on the ground, don’t

let the saw’s chain dig into the earth;

it is harmful for the saw, and you

stand a good chance of being struck

by flying debris.

To cut the trunk, use the bucking and two-cut sequence shown. The first cut

should be no deeper than one-third the trunk diameter.
