Boring Cut
A boring cut is used to fell large trees. Follow the steps
listed below when performing a boring cut.
1. Cut, using the bottom portion of the guide bar tip,
until the depth of the cut is equal to the width of the
guide bar and deep enough to stop a kickback during
steps 2 and 3.
2. Operating at full throttle, align the saw with the
direction of cut.
3. With saw at full throttle, press the guide bar straight
into the trunk.
WARNING!
STOP
Making a boring cut can be dangerous if improperly
performed. Only properly trained operators should
attempt this technique.
