Limb A Tree; Buck A Log - GreenWorks Pro CS60L03 Manual Del Operador

EN
The level notching cut helps prevent pinching of the
saw chain or the guide bar when you make the second
notch.
2. Make the felling cut no less than 2 in. (50 mm) and
higher than the level notching cut. Make sure that this
cut
a) Is parallel to the level notching cut.
b) Keeps sufficient wood to become a hinge (29) which
prevents the tree from twisting and felling in the
wrong direction.
When the felling cut (28) gets near the hinge (29), the tree
falls. Stop the felling cut if the tree
• Does not fall in the correct direction or
• Moves backwards, causing the cutting bar and chain
to become stuck in the cut.
3. Use felling wedge to open the cut and let the tree fall
in the correct direction.
4. When the tree starts to fall,
a) Remove the chainsaw from the cut.
b) Stop the machine.
c) Put the machine down.
d) Move away from the tree via the escape path (25).
Always keep watching the tree to see it's direction of
fall, be careful with overhead branches and your
footing.
