1. Always ensure your foothold as well as stability of the tree.
2. Be alert to the rolling over of a cut log.
3. Read the instructions in “For Safe Operation” to avoid kickback of
the saw.
Before starting work, check the direction of bending force inside the
log to be cut. Always finish cutting from the opposite side of bending
direction to prevent the guide bar from being caught in the cutaway.
Cutting an unpillowed log
Saw down halfway, then roll the log over and cut from the
opposite side.
Cutting a pillowed log
In the area A in the picture right above, saw up from the bottom
one-third and finish by sawing down from the top. In the area B,
saw down from the top one-third and finish by sawing up from
the bottom.
Limbing a felled tree
First check which way the limb is bent. Then make a shallow cut into
the compressed side to prevent the limb from being torn. Cut through
from the tensed side.
