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.
Leave a broader hinge on rotten
trees.
Shout a second 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 of the tree 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.
