OPERATION
Limbing
Limbing a fallen tree is much the
same as bucking. Never stand on
the tree that you are limbing. When
limbing, caution is the word. Be
careful of the tip touching other
limbs. Always use both hands.
Don't cut with the saw overhead or
aligned vertically with your body. If
the saw should kick back, you may
not have enough control to prevent
possible injury.
Bucking
Bucking is the sawing of a log or
fallen tree into smaller pieces. There
are a few basic rules which apply to
all bucking operations.
• Keep both hands on the handles
at all times.
• Support logs if possible.
• When cutting on a slope or
hillside, always stand uphill.
