Drive wedges into the felling cut in good
time – use only wooden, aluminum or
plastic wedges – never steel, which can
damage the chain and cause kickback.
– The hinge (E) helps control the
falling tree.
– Do not cut through the hinge – you
could lose control of the direction of
fall – this could result in an accident.
– If the trunk is rotten, leave a wider
hinge.
Shout a warning immediately before the
tree falls.
Small diameter trees:
simple fan cut
Apply the spiked bumper behind the
hinge – pivot the saw around this point –
only as far as the hinge. The spiked
bumper rolls against the trunk.
Large diameter trees:
sectioning method
If the diameter is greater than the length
of the guide bar, use the sectioning
method.
Use the spiked bumper as a pivot –
avoid repositioning the saw more than
necessary.
First cut (1):
Nose of guide bar should enter wood
just behind the hinge – hold the saw
horizontally and swing it as far as
possible.
