When limbing leave larger lower limbs to support the

log off the ground. Remove the small limbs in one cut as
illustrated in Figure 1. Branches under tension should
be cut from the bottom up to avoid binding the pruning
saw.

2. BUCKING A LOG

Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to
make sure your footing is firm and your weight is evenly
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 in Figure 2, it is cut from the top (overbuck),
avoid contacting ground as this will greatly reduce the
Fig.2
chain sharpness.

When the log is supported on one end, as illustrated
in Figure 3, cut 1/3 the diameter from the underside
Fig.3
( underbuck) (1). Then make the finished cut by
overbucking (2) to meet the first cut.

When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill
side of the log, as illustrated in Figure 5. When "cutting
1/3
through", to maintain complete control release the
cutting pressure near the end of the cut without
relaxing your grip on the pruning saw handles. Don't
let the chain contact the ground. After completing the
cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before you move the
pruning saw. Always stop the motor before moving from
tree to tree.
