Limbing a tree
Limbing is removing the branches from a fallen tree. When
limbing leave larger lower limbs to support the log off the
ground. Remove the small limbs in one cut as illustrated.
Branches under tension should be cut from the bottom up
to avoid binding the chain saw.
Bucking a log
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to
distributed on both feet. When possible, the log should be
raised and supported by the use of limbs, logs or chocks.
Follow the simple directions for easy cutting.
When the log is supported along its entire length as
illustrated, it is cut from the top (overbuck).
When the log is supported on one end as illustrated, cut
When the log is supported on both ends, as illustrated
When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill side
of the log. When "cutting through", to maintain complete
control release the cutting pressure near the end of the cut
without relaxing your grip on the chain saw handles. Do
not let the saw chain contact the ground. After completing

the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before you move
the chain saw. Always stop the motor before moving from
tree to tree.
ELECTRICAL OUTLETS AND EXTENSION
CORDS
a WARNING: Do not touch the terminals of the plug
when installing or removing the extension cord
from the plug.
Double insulated power tools are equipped with a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) and will
require the use of a polarized extension cord. The power
correct polarized extension cord.
A polarized extension cord will require the use of a
Do not change or alter the power tool plug, the wall outlet,
or the extension cord plug in any way.
Double insulation eliminates the need for a three-wire
grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
This is applicable only to Class II (double-insulated) tools.
This power tool is a double-insulated tool.
a WARNING: GFCI protection should be provided
on all circuits or outlets to be used for the power
tool. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI
protection and should be used for this measure of
protection.
NOTE: Double insulation does not take the place of
normal safety precautions when operating the power
tool.
Before plugging in the power tool, make sure that the
outlet voltage supplied is within the voltage marked on the
power tool's data plate. Do not use "AC only" rated power
tools with a DC power supply.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, use the power tool
only with an extension cord intended for outdoor use, such
as an extension cord of cord type: SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A,
STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A. or SJTOW-A.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current that your power tool will draw.
An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The
table below shows the correct size to use depending on
cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.
