back and forth but rather let
the chain do the work, keep
the chain sharp and do not try
to push the chain through the
cut.
 Do not apply pressure to the
saw at the end of the cut. Be
prepared to relax the load on
the saw when it has cut

cuts in safely supported wood.
Repeat this exercise if you have
not used your chainsaw for a
long time. ● Do not saw vines
