sure the saw is running at full speed before
starting a cut.

against the wood. The wood should be as close
to the saw body as possible. Hold saw firmly
in place to avoid possible bouncing or skating
(sideways movement) of saw.
(7) Guide the saw using light pressure and do not
put excessive force on the saw, letting the saw
do its work. The motor will overload and can burn
out. It will do the job better and safer at the rate
for which it was intended.
(8) Remove the saw from a cut with the saw running
at full speed. Stop the saw by releasing the on/off
switch. Make sure the chain has stopped before
setting the saw down.
(9) Keep practicing on scrap logs in a secure working
area until you are comfortable, using a fluid
motion and a steady cutting rate.

the log (overbuck) and then finish the cut (Z) from
below, in order to avoid contact of the chainsaw with
the ground. When sawing logs supported on only
one end, start the cut from below (Y) about 1/3 of
the diameter into the log (underbuck) and finish the
cut from above (Z) in order to avoid log splitting or
jamming of the chainsaw.
