Keep a clear cutting area. Make sure that no objects
Q
can contact the guide bar nose and chain during
cutting, this can cause Kickback. Refer to Kickback
in the Specific Safety Rules section of this manual for
more information.
During bucking operations, stand on the uphill side so
Q
that the cut-off section of the log cannot roll over you.
Sometimes it is impossible to avoid pinching (with
Q
just standard cutting techniques) or difficult to predict
which way a log will settle when cut.
BUCKING WITH A WEDGE
See Figure 29.
If the wood diameter is large enough for you to insert
a soft bucking wedge without touching the chain, you
should use the wedge to hold the cut open to prevent
pinching.
BUCKING LOGS UNDER STRESS
See Figure 30.
Make the first bucking cut 1/3 of the way through the log
and finish with a 2/3 cut on the opposite side. As you cut
the log, it will tend to bend. The saw can become pinched
or hung in the log if you make the first cut deeper than
1/3 of the diameter of the log.
Give special attention to logs under stress to prevent the
bar and chain from pinching.
OPERATION
OVERBUCKING
See Figure 31.
Begin on the top side of the log with the bottom of the
saw against the log; exert light pressure downward. Note
that the saw will tend to pull away from you.
UNDERBUCKING
See Figure 32.
Begin on the underside of the log with the top of the
saw against the log; exert light pressure upward. During
under bucking, the saw will tend to push back at you.
Be prepared for this reaction and hold the saw firmly to
maintain control.
BRANCH TRIMMING AND PRUNING
See Figures 33 - 34.
Work slowly, keeping both hands on the saw with a
Q
firm grip. Maintain secure footing and balance.
Keep the tree between you and the chain while
Q
limbing.
Do not cut from a ladder. This is extremely
Q
dangerous. Leave this operation for professionals.
Do not cut above chest height. A saw held higher
Q
than chest height is difficult to control against
kickback.

CUTTING SPRINGPOLES
See Figure 35.
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.
MAINTENANCE
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use.
Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, lubricant, grease,
etc.

WARNING:
Never climb into a tree to limb or prune. Do
not stand on ladders, platforms, a log, or in
any position which can cause you to lose your
balance or control of the saw.
When pruning trees it is important not to make the
flush cut next to the main limb or trunk until you have
cut off the limb further out to reduce the weight. This
prevents stripping the bark from the main member.
Under buck the branch 1/3 through for your first cut.
Over buck the branch to drop it.
Finish by cutting smoothly and neatly against the
main member so the bark will grow back to seal the
wound.
WARNING:
If the limbs to be pruned are above chest height,
hire a professional to perform the pruning.
WARNING:
Springpoles are dangerous and could strike the
operator, causing the operator to lose control of
the chainsaw. This could result in severe or fatal
injury to the operator.
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical Homelite
replacement parts. Use of any other parts may
create a hazard or cause product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses
with side shields during power tool operation or
when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also
wear a dust mask.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, petrol,
p e t r o l e u m - b a s e d p r o d u c t s , p e n e t r a t i n g
lubricants, etc., come in contact with plastic
