Voltor V 20-E Manual De Instrucciones página 42

Cuando usted vaya a abatir un árbol siempre avise a
todas las personas que se encuentren alrededor antes
de comenzar y vuelva a avisar justo antes de finalizar
el corte horizontal y que el árbol comience a caer.
Siempre asegúrese de estar en una posición estable y
nunca se apoye o esté sobre el árbol que vaya a abatir.
If you work on an incline, place yourself on the top
incline so as to avoid the tree rolling towards you once
it has been cut.
Follow all the security instructions included
in this manual so as to avoid the kick back
of the machine.
7.3.2. CUTTING A TRUNK PLACED ON THE GROUND
When a trunk is fully placed on the ground, cut firstly
halfway from
the top end,
then turn the
trunk halfway
and cut the rest.
If the trunk is leaning on two sides (B zone) you must
first cut the top end halfway through (1) and then cut
the rest from below (2). This way you will avoid that
the internal
trunk tension
closes in
on the cut,
blocking the
chain and the
chainsaw bar.
If you are going to cut with the trunk on one extreme
(A) you will have to start inversely. Firstly cut the trunk
halfway from the bottom and then from the top part
(2).

7.3.3. CUTTING BRANCHES FROM A FELLED TREE
It is important that
these branches are
not folded and/or
under tension. If the
branch to be cut is
folded or under tension y could propel itself towards
you when you cut it.
To cut a branch, in this case, cut 1/4 of the way on
the side where the branch has the tension and after
that cut the rest of the branch from the other side
(see diagram). This way you will avoid that the branch
tension closes the cut and/or blocks the chain and bar
of the machine.
7.3.4. CUTTING THE BRANCH FROM A TREE
To cut a branch from a tree that
is not touching the ground cut
a quarter of the way from the
bottom side (1) and then cut the
rest from the top end (2).
This way you will help the
aperture of the cut and that the
branch does not pull and damage the tree trunk.
7.3.5. BRANCH CUTTING OR SMALL TRUNK CUTTING
When cutting branches or small trunks use a strong
support such as an easel.
Never hold the trunk by
using your feet or asking
someone else to hold the
wood for you.
