Make sure that you have a secure and balanced footing. Watch out for obstacles
such as tree stumps, roots and
ditches, which could cause you to
trip or stumble.
BASIC CUTTING PROCEDURE
(Fig. 6 & 7)
Follow the steps below to prevent damage
to tree or shrub bark. Do not use a back-
and-forth saw ing motion.
1. Make a shallow first cut (1/4 of the
limb diameter) on the underside of
the limb, close to the main limb or
trunk.
2. Make a second cut from the top side
of the limb, outboard from the first
cut. Continue the cut through the
limb until the limb separates from
the tree. Be prepared to balance the
weight of the tool when the limb
falls.
3. Make a final cut close to trunk.
NOTICE:
For second and final cuts (from the top of the limb or branch), hold
bucking spikes
against the limb being cut (Fig. 7). This will help to steady the limb
and make it easier to cut. Allow the chain to cut for you; exert only light downward
pressure. If you force the cut, damage to the bar, chain, or motor can result.
4. Release the trigger on the power head as soon as the cut is com pleted.
NOTICE:
Failure to follow proper cutting procedures will result in the bar and chain
binding and becom ing pinched or trapped in the limb. If this should happen:
1. Stop the motor and remove the battery pack.
2. If the limb can be reached from the ground, lift the limb while holding the saw.
This should release the "pinch" and free the saw.
3. If the saw is still trapped, call a professional for assistance.
