Bucking - Parkside PKSA 20-Li B2 Translation Of The Original Instructions

• Dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples
and wire must be removed from the
tree.
• For sawing work on a slope, always
stand above the tree trunk.
• To keep control at the moment of
"sawing through", reduce the contact
pressure at the end of the cut without
loosening the fi rm grip on the chainsaw
handles. Ensure that the saw chain
does not come into contact with the
ground.
• After completing the cut, wait for the
chainsaw to come to a standstill before
removing the chainsaw.
• Always switch off the chainsaw motor
before moving from one tree to an-
other.
• Lay the connecting lead such that it will
not be caught on branches or similar
during sawing.
• For each cut, apply the claw stop se-
curely and only then start sawing.
• You have better control when you saw
with the bottom side of the chain bar
(with pulling saw chain) and not to with
the top side of the chain bar (with push-
ing saw chain).
• The saw chain must not contact either
the ground or another object during
sawing through or after sawing com-
pletion.
• Make sure that the saw chain does not
become jammed in the wood. Do not
let the tree trunk break or split off.
• Consider also the precautions against
spring-back (see notes on safety).
• For sawing work on a slope, always
stand above the tree trunk. To keep
control at the moment of "sawing
through", reduce the contact pressure
at the end of the cut without loosening
the fi rm grip on the chainsaw handles.
Ensure that the saw chain does not
come into contact with the ground.
After completing the cut, wait for the
chainsaw to come to a standstill before
removing the chainsaw. Always switch
off the chainsaw motor before moving
from one tree to another.
If the saw chain jams, you
do not attempt to pull out the
electric chainsaw using pow-
er. There is a danger of injury
here. Switch off the motor
and use a lever or wedge to
free the electric chainsaw.

This refers to sawing up a felled tree trunk
into smaller sections.
Ensure that you are in a secure position
and that your body weight is distributed
evenly on both feet. If possible, under-
pin and support the stem with branches,
beams or wedges.
• Ensure that the saw chain does not
come in contact with the ground during
sawing.
• Make sure you have a secure stance
and, in the case of sloping ground,
stand above the log.
To maintain full control at the moment
of "sawing through", reduce the contact
pressure at the end of the cut, without
releasing the fi rm grip on the chain
saw handles. Once cutting is complete,
wait for the saw chain to come to a
standstill before removing the chain
saw from there. Always switch off the
chain saw before changing from tree
to tree.

Saw through the log completely
