Limbing

Bucking

OPERATION

Limbing a fallen tree is much the same

as bucking. Never stand on the tree

that you are limbing. When limbing,

caution is the word. Be careful of the tip

touching other limbs. Always use both

hands.

Don’t cut with the saw overhead or

aligned vertically with your body. If the

saw should kick back, you may not

have enough control to prevent possible

injury.

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.
