• When bucking and felling operations are being performed by two or more persons at
the same time, the felling operations should be separated from the bucking operation by
a distance of at least twice the height of the tree being felled.
• Trees should not be felled in a manner that would endanger any person, strike any utility
line or cause any property damage. If the tree does make contact with any utility line, the
company should be notified immediately.
• The chain saw operator should keep on the uphill side of the terrain as the tree is likely to
roll or slide downhill after it is felled.
An escape path should be planned and cleared as necessary before cuts are started. The
escape path should extend back and diagonally to the rear of the expected line of fall as
illustrated in figure 17.
• Before felling is started, consider the natural lean of the tree, the location of larger
branches and the wind direction to judge which way the tree will fall.
Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples and wire from the tree.
