To use the tree felling technique
WARNING: You must have experience to
fell a tree. If possible, engage in a training
course in chainsaw operation. Speak to an
operator with experience for more
knowledge.
To keep a safe distance
1. Make sure that persons around you keep a safe
distance at a minimum of 2 1/2 tree lengths. (Fig. 69)
2. Make sure that no person is in the risk zone before
or during felling. (Fig. 70)
To calculate the felling direction
1. Examine in which direction it is necessary for the
tree to fall. The goal is to fell it in a position where
you can limb and cut the trunk easily. It is also
important that you are stable on your feet and can
move about safely.
WARNING: If it is dangerous or not
possible to fell the tree in its natural
direction, fell the tree in a different
direction.
2. Examine the natural fall direction of the tree. For
example the tilt and bend of the tree, wind direction,
the location of the branches and weight of snow.
3. Examine if there are obstacles, for example other
trees, power lines, roads and/or buildings around.
4. Look for signs of damage and rot in the stem.
WARNING: Rot in the stem can mean a
risk that the tree falls before you
complete the cutting.
5. Make sure the tree has no damaged or dead
branches that can break off and hit you during
felling.
6. Do not let the tree fall onto a different standing tree.
It is dangerous to remove a caught tree and there is
a high accident risk. Refer to
on page 18 . (Fig. 71)
WARNING: During critical felling
operations, lift your hearing protection
immediately when the sawing is
complete. It is important that you hear
sounds and warning signals.
To clear the trunk and prepare your path of
retreat
Cut off all branches from your shoulder height and
down.
