ELECTRIC CHAINSAW
Trim the ranches from a fallen tree. Do not cut branches that support the trunk and do not allow it to slide
A (Fig. 12) until you cut the trunk.
Branches exposed to external stress should be cut from the bottom up to avoid jamming of the saw.
Cross sawing
Sawing is performed across wood fibres. When working on an incline, make sure you are in a stable position
and stand on the higher side of the slope with respect to the trunk.
It is desirable that the trunk lay on supports, and the sawn end was not on the ground. Make sure that the chain
does not crash into the ground, as this will cause rapid chain wear.
With transverse sawing, dog 1 (Fig. 13) should be installed on the sawn log.
1. If the trunk is supported along the entire length, drive the saw from top to bottom and at the same time
make sure that the chain does not cut into the ground (Fig. 14).
2. In the case when the trunk rests on the support at one end, first cut from the bottom to 1/3 of the trunk
diameter to avoid splitting. Then finish the cut from above so that it coincides with the first cut, avoiding
jamming (Fig. 15).
3. In the case when the trunk is supported from two ends, first cut on top 1/3 of the trunk diameter to avoid
splitting. After that, finish the cut from the bottom so that it coincides with the first cut, avoiding jamming
(Fig. 16).
For sawing into pieces, the best solution is to support the trunk oh framing. If this is not possible, the trunk
should be lifted and laid on the logs. Make sure the trunk is firmly fixed.
For personal safety and ease of sawing, observe the correct body position (Fig. 17):
1. Hold the saw firmly with both hands to the right of the body.
2. Keep your left hand as straight as possible.
3. Keep your balance with both legs.
