Start sawing from the bottom and
work your way up (with the upper
edge of the bar) a third of the way
into the diameter of the trunk to
prevent splitting. Then saw from
the top downwards with the lower
edge of the bar towards the first
cut to prevent the bar from be-

4� Sawing on a sawhorse:
Hold the electric chainsaw steady
with both hands, keeping the saw
in front of you while sawing. Once
the saw is through the wood, guide
the machine passed you on the
right (1). Hold your left arm as
straight as you can (2). Watch out
for the falling trunk. Position your-

separated trunk. Watch your feet.
The trunk may cause injuries when
falling. Keep your balance

Limbing is the designation for the sawing off
of branches and boughs from a felled
Many accidents occur during the

Do not remove support branches until
after the sawing off.
Branches under tension must be
sawed from below to above, in order
to prevent jamming of the chainsaw.
When working on thicker branches,
use the same technique as when you
are sawing up a felled trunk.
Work to the left of the log and as near
as possible to the electric chainsaw.
As far as possible, the weight of the
saw should rest on the log.
Change position to saw off branches
on the other side of the trunk.
Branches sticking out are cut off sepa-
rately.
trees
A lot of experience is necessary
in felling trees. Cut down trees
only when you can safely han-
dle the electric chainsaw. In no
case should you use the electric
chainsaw if you feel unsure
about anything�
Ensure that no people or animals
are in the field of action. The safety
distance between the tree to be felled
and the nearest-located workplace
must be 2 ½ tree lengths.
Note the felling direction:
The user must be able to move safely
near the felled tree, to saw off the tree
easily and remove branches.It is to
be avoided that the felled tree snags
itself on another tree. Note the natural
felling direction, which is dependent
on the slope and curvature character-
istic of the tree, wind direction and the
number of branches.
In the case of sloping ground, stand
above the tree to be felled.
