direction of the fall. Make the lower horizontal notching cut first. This will help to avoid pinching of either the Saw Chain or the Chain Guide Bar when the second notch is being made.

5.When making a felling back cut, make the felling back cut at least

2 inches higher than the horizontal notching cut. Keep the felling back cut parallel to the horizontal notching cut. Make the felling back cut so that enough wood is left to act as a hinge. The hinge wood keeps the tree from twisting and falling in the wrong direction. Do not cut through the hinge.

6.As the felling cut gets close to the hinge the tree should begin to fall. If there is any chance that the tree may not fall in the desired direction, or it may rock back and bind the Saw Chain (72), stop cutting before the felling back cut is complete and use wedges of wood, plastic, or aluminum to open the cut and drop the tree along the desired line of fall.

7.When the tree begins to fall, remove the Chain Saw from the cut. Turn off the Chain Saw and put it down. Then, use the retreat path planned. Be alert for overhead limbs falling, and watch your footing.

8.When limbing (trimming) branches from a fallen tree, leave the larger, lower limbs to support the log off the ground. Remove the small limbs in one cut. Branches under tension should be cut from the bottom up to avoid binding the Saw Chain.

9.Bucking a log is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to make sure your footing is firm and your weight is evenly distributed on both feet. When possible, the log should be raised and supported by the use of limbs, logs, chocks or a timberjack.

10.To Overbuck is when the log is supported along its entire length and is cut from the top. Allow the Saw to pull forward into the top of the log until the Spiked Bumper contacts on the log. Then pivot the saw through the log.
