•
Dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples
and wire must be removed from the tree.
•
For sawing work on a slope, always
stand above the tree trunk.
•
To keep control at the moment of
"sawing through", reduce the contact
pressure at the end of the cut without
loosening the firm grip on the chain-
saw handles. Ensure that the saw
chain does not come into contact with
the ground.
•
After completing the cut, wait for the
chainsaw to come to a standstill be-
fore removing the chainsaw.
Always switch off the chainsaw motor
•
before moving from one tree to another.
•
Lay the connecting lead such that it
will not be caught on branches or simi-
lar during sawing.
•
For each cut, apply the claw stop se-
curely and only then start sawing.
•
You have better control when you saw
with the bottom side of the chain bar
(with pulling saw chain) and not to with
the top side of the chain bar (with push-
ing saw chain).
•
The saw chain must not contact either
the ground or another object during saw-
ing through or after sawing completion.
•
Make sure that the saw chain does not
become jammed in the wood. Do not
let the tree trunk break or split off.
•
Consider also the precautions against
spring-back (see notes on safety)..

switch off the chainsaw motor before
moving from one tree to another.
If the saw chain jams, you do not
attempt to pull out the electric
chainsaw using power. There is
a danger of injury here. Switch
off the motor and use a lever or
wedge to free the electric chain-
saw.

This refers to sawing up a felled tree trunk
into smaller sections.
Ensure that you are in a secure position
and that your body weight is distributed
evenly on both feet. If possible, under-
pin and support the stem with branches,
beams or wedges.
•
Ensure that the saw chain does not
come in contact with the ground during
sawing.
•
Make sure you have a secure stance
and, in the case of sloping ground,
stand above the log.
To maintain full control at the moment
of "sawing through", reduce the contact
pressure at the end of the cut, without
releasing the firm grip on the chain saw
handles. Once cutting is complete, wait
for the saw chain to come to a standstill
before removing the chain saw from
there. Always switch off the chain saw
before changing from tree to tree.
1. Log is lying on the ground:
K
Saw through the log completely
from above and ensure at the
end of the cut not to contact the
ground.
If you can turn the tree trunk, saw
two-thirds of the way through it.
Then turn the trunk around and
saw the rest of the way through
from above.
