Asthelogisbeingcut,itwilltendtobend.Thesaw
canbecomepinchedorhunginthelogifyoumake
thefirstcutdeeperthan1/3ofthediameterofthelog.
Givespecialattentiontologsunderstresstoprevent
thebarandchainfrompinching.
TYPES OF CUTTING USED
See Figure 20.
OVERBUCKING
Beginonthetopsideofthelogwiththebottomofthe
sawagainstthelog;exertlightpressuredownward.
Notethatthesawwilltendtopullawayfromyou.
UNDERBUCKING
Beginontheundersideofthelogwiththetop
ofthesawagainstthelog;exertlightpressure
upward.Duringunderbucking,thesawwilltend
topushbackatyou.Bepreparedforthisreaction
and hold the saw firmly to maintain control.
LIMBING
See Figure 21.
WARNING:
Neverclimbintoatreetolimborprune.Donot
standonladders, platforms,a log,orinany
positionwhichcancauseyoutoloseyourbal-
ance or control of the saw, which could result
indeathorotherseriouspersonalinjury.
Limbingisremovingbranchesfromafallentree.
Workslowly,keepingbothhandsonthechain
sawwithafirmgrip.Alwaysmakesureyour
footing is secure and your weight is distributed
evenlyonbothfeet.
Leavethelargersupportlimbsunderthetree
tokeepthetreeoffthegroundwhilecutting.
Limbsshouldbecutoneatatime.Removethe
cutlimbsfromtheworkareaoftentohelpkeep
the work area clean and safe.
 Branches under tension should be cut from the
bottomuptoavoidbindingthechainsaw.
Keepthetreebetweenyouandthechainsaw
whilelimbing.Cutfromthesideofthetreeop-
positethebranchyouarecutting.
PRUNING
See Figure 22.
Pruningistrimminglimbsfromalivetree.
Workslowly,keepingbothhandsonthechain
sawwithafirmgrip.Alwaysmakesureyour
footing is secure and your weight is distributed
evenlyonbothfeet.
Donotcutfromaladder,thisisextremelydan-
gerous.Leavethisoperationforprofessionals.
