Instructions concerning the proper techniques for

limbing and cross-cutting

1. Limbing a tree

Limbing is removing the branches from a fallen tree.

When limbing leave larger lower limbs to support the Y

log off the ground. Remove the small limbs in one cut as

illustrated in Figure 1. Branches under tension should
be cut from the bottom up to avoid binding the pruning
saw.

2. Bucking a log
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to
make sure your footing is firm and your weight is evenly
distributed on both feet. When possible, the log should
be raised and supported by the use of limbs, logs or
chocks. Follow the simple directions for easy cutting.
When the log is supported along its entire length as
illustrated in Figure 2, it is cut from the top (overbuck),
avoid contacting ground as this will greatly reduce the
chain sharpness.
Figure 2
When the log is supported on one end, as illustrated
in Figure 3, cut 1/3 the diameter from the underside
( underbuck) (1). Then make the finished cut by
1
overbucking (2) to meet the first cut.

When the log is supported on both ends, as illustrated

When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill
side of the log, as illustrated in Figure 5. When "cutting
through", to maintain complete control release the
cutting pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing
your grip on the pruning saw handles. Don't let the chain
contact the ground. After completing the cut, wait for
the saw chain to stop before you move the pruning saw.
Always stop the motor before moving from tree to tree.
