2. Make sure that the directional cut line is perfectly
horizontal and at right angles (90°) to the felling
direction. The directional cut line goes through the
point where the two directional cuts touch.
To make the felling cut
Note: The felling cut is made on the opposite side of the
tree from the directional cuts.
1. Make the felling cut approximately 3-5 cm/1.5-2 in
above the bottom directional cuts. The cut must be
perfectly horizontal.
2. If you have a spiked bumper, put it behind the felling
hinge.
3. Cut on the pull stroke, use full power and forward the
saw chain/guide bar slowly into the tree. Make sure
that the tree does not fall in an unwanted direction.
4. Operate a wedge or breaking bar into the cut when
the cut has accurate depth.

5. Complete the felling cut parallel with the directional
cut line. Make sure that the distance between them
is at a minimum of 1/10 of the trunk diameter. The
section of the trunk that is not cut is the felling hinge.
The felling hinge controls the felling direction.
WARNING: You have no control of the
felling direction if the felling hinge is
gone or if it is too thin. This also applies
to if you have not made the directional
cuts and felling cut correctly.
6. At this time, the tree will fall by its own force or with
the aid of a wedge or breaking bar.
Note: Use a guide bar that is longer than the diameter of
the tree. This helps you to make the felling cut and
directional cuts with one cutting stroke each. See
Accessories on page 32 to find out which bar lengths
we recommended for your product.
