CUTTING
A simple rule applies for cutting.
ALWAYS USE COMMON SENSE AND DO NOT TAKE CHANCES.
A chainsaw is a good servant but a bad master.
1. Always hold the chainsaw with both hands
2. Keep a firm stance. Do not cut on ladders or stepladders. Never cut above shoulder
level.
3. Never stand in such a way that, in the event of the chainsaw being hurled, the chain
broken, the material hurled, etc., the chain or cut wood could hit you or someone
around you.
4. Count on the springs. Prevent the chain being clamped (pinched) when cutting.
5. Count on gravity. Always stay so that the branches or logs cannot hit you after
cutting and loosening.
6. Do not over-estimate your abilities and strength. (For example, when cutting with
the top of the bar, you must keep holding the chainsaw even if there is a problem.)
7. Take full care of your work and be perfectly aware of what is happening around
you. Often clean the cut material under your feet.
8. Remember, the bar is mostly longer than cut wood and it can cut even where you
do not see. (To other material, fence, earth, etc.)
9. Use protective equipment.
10. Never work under the influence of alcohol or narcotics.
CUTTING METHOD
All cutting methods are based on simple principles.
• The chain and cut material must not endanger the operator or persons standing nearby.
• The chain must never be clamped (pinched) in the cut.
• Cut material must not break uncontrollably.
The following treatment is based on these principles.
- First familiarize yourself with the chainsaw controls and their reactions.
- Try a few draft cuts.
- After mastering the basic control, your best helper will be common sense and good
judgment.
- Only saw wood using the chainsaw.
- Never allow the chain to touch the ground or obstacles.
- Make all the cuts lightly and never push the chainsaw. Cutting by the correct part of
the bar and correct pressure will reduce the possibility of kickback.
