OPERATION INSTRUCTION
When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill side of the log. when cutting through to
maintain complete control release the cutting pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing
your grip on the chainsaw handle. Don't let the chain contact the ground. After completing the
cut wait for the saw chain to stop before you move the chainsaw. Always stop the motor before
moving from tree to tree.
CUTTING SPRINGPOLES
A springpole is any log, branch, rooted stump, or sapling which is bent under tension by other
wood so that it springs back if the wood holding it is cut or removed. On a fallen tree, a rooted
stump has a high potential of springing back to the upright position during the bucking cut to
separate the log from the stump. Watch out for springpoles — they are dangerous.
