If the user does not balance out the force of the saw chain pushing
backwards with his or her bodily force, there is a danger that only the
tip of the saw rail will make contact with the wood and there will thus
be a rebound (▸ Risk of rebound! – p. 99).
Felling a tree
DANGER!
Risk of injury!
Felling and delimbing work may only be performed by trained people! There is a risk of fatal
injuries!
Before beginning the felling work, make sure that:
• there are no people or animals in the felling
area of the tree
• there is an obstacle-free escape route for each
participant. A retreat (B) occurs diagonally
counter to the felling direction (A).
• the area around the trunk is free of obstacles
(risk of stumbling!).
• the next workplace is at least two and a half tree lengths (A) away. Before felling, the felling
direction of the tree must be checked and it must be ensured that there are no objects or people
in a distance of 2 1/2 tree lengths.
The felling of a tree occurs in two steps:
1. Notch the trunk by approximately one-third of its diameter on the felling
direction side.
2. On the other side, make the felling cut, which must be somewhat higher
than the felling notch (approx. 3-5 cm).
DANGER!
Risk of injury!
Never saw the tree trunk completely through. The area (C) serves as a "hinge" and ensures
a defined felling direction.
DANGER!
Risk of injury!
When felling, stand only to the side of the tree to be felled! There is a risk of fatal injuries!
Trunks lying flat on the ground
– Cut into the trunk halfway, then turn over and saw through from the opposite side.
NOTICE!
Device damage!
Make sure that the saw rail does not touch the ground while you are sawing through the
trunk!
