Sawing techniques
General information
Observe noise protection rules and
other local regulations when working
with the tool. Local regulations may require
a suitability test. Check with the forestry
administration.
• Dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, clips and
wires must be removed from the tree.
• Always stand above the tree trunk
when sawing on slopes.
• To keep total control while sawing
through, reduce the pressure at the end
of the cut without loosening your grip
on the handles of the garden pruner.
Make sure the saw chain does not
touch the ground. After finishing the
cut, wait until the garden pruner comes
to a stop before removing it.
• Always switch off the motor of the gar-
den pruner before changing between
40
trees.
• You will have better control over the de-
vice if you saw using the lower edge of
the blade bar (chain in pulling direction).
• The saw chain must not touch the
ground or any object while sawing
through the material or thereafter.
• Ensure that the saw chain does not get
stuck while sawing. The log must not
break or splinter.
• Please also observe the precautionary
measures to protect against kickback
(see the safety information).
• For sawing work on hillsides, always
stand in the area above the log.
To keep total control while sawing
through, reduce the pressure at the end
of the cut without loosening your grip
on the handles of the garden pruner.
Make sure the saw chain does not
touch the ground. After finishing the
cut, wait until the saw chain comes to a
stop before removing it. Always switch
off the motor of the garden pruner be-
fore changing between trees.
If the saw chain gets stuck, do
not attempt to pull out the device
with force. There is a risk of injury.
Turn the motor off and use a lever
arm or wedge to release the device.
Cut to length
Cutting to length means sawing felled tree
trunks into small sections. Ensure that you
have secure footing and balance your
body weight evenly on both feet. If possi-
ble, the trunk should be protected and sup-
ported by branches, logs or wedges.
• Make sure that the saw chain does not
touch the ground when sawing.
• Make sure you have good footing and
