3. When the log is supported on both ends (Fig. 35), cut 1/3 the diameter from the top
(overbuck). Then make the finished cut by underbucking the lower 2/3 to meet the
first cut.
4. When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill side of the log (Fig. 36). When
"cutting through", to maintain complete control release the cutting pressure near the
end of the cut without relaxing your grip on the product handles. Do not let the chain
contact the ground. After completing the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before
you move the product. Always stop the engine before moving from tree to tree.

5. Support small logs on a sawing stand or another log while bucking (Fig. 37).
6. If the wood diameter is large enough for you to insert a soft bucking wedge without
touching the chain, you should use the wedge to hold the cut open to prevent
pinching (Fig. 38).
