Cutting Tips for Pole Chain
Saw
Proper Cutting Stance
• Balance your weight with both feet on solid ground.
• Your body should always be to the left of the chain line.
• The most typical cutting application is to position the
unit at an angle of 60° or less depending on the specific
situation (Fig. 24). As the angle of the pole chain saw shaft
to the ground increases, the difficulty of making the first
cut (from the underside of limb) increases.
