Bucking
Bucking is cutting a log into sections.
!
Warning!
1. When bucking, do not stand on the
log. Make sure the log will not roll
downhill. If on a slope, stand on the
uphill side of the log. Watch out for
rolling logs.

2. Cut only one log at a time.
3. Shattered wood should be cut very
carefully. Sharp slivers of wood may
be caught and flung in the direction
of the operator of the saw.
4. When cutting small logs, place log
through "V" - shaped supports on
top of a sawhorse. Never permit
another person to hold the log.
Never hold the log with your leg or
foot.
5. Logs under strain: Risk of pinching!
Always start relieving cut (1) at
compression side (A).Then make
bucking cut (2) at tension side (B).
If the saw pinches, stop the motor
and remove it from the log.
6. Only properly trained professionals
should work in an area where the
logs, limbs and roots are tangled.
Working in blow down areas is
extremely hazardous.
7. Drag the logs into a clear area
before cutting. Pull out exposed and
cleared logs first.
