WORKING TECHNIQUES
Two factors decide whether the chain will jam or the object
risk that the chain will touch the ground when you finish
the cut.
that you are cutting will split: the first is how the object is
supported before and after cutting, and the second is
whether it is in tension.
In most cases you can avoid these problems by cutting in
two stages; from the top and from the bottom.You need to
support the object so that it will not trap the chain or split
during cutting.
Cut all the way through the log from above. Avoid letting
the chain touch the ground as you finish the cut. Maintain
full throttle but be prepared for what might happen.
IMPORTANT! If the chain jams in the cut: stop the
engine! Don’t try to pull the chain saw free.If you do you
may be injured by the chain when the chain saw
suddenly breaks free.Use a lever to open up the cut and
free the chain saw.
If it is possible (can you turn the log?) stop cutting about
2/3
of the way through the log.
The following instructions describe how to handle the
commonest situations you are likely to encounter when
using a chain saw.
Turn the log and finish the cut from the opposite side.

of kickback which can result in a serious
or fatal injury.

that the chain will jam.

Start by cutting from above (about 1/3 of the way through).
Finish by cutting from below so that the two cuts meet.
If you have a pile of logs, each log you attempt to cut
should be removed from the pile, placed on a saw horse
or runners and cut individually.
Remove the cut pieces from the cutting area. By leaving
them in the cutting area, you increase the risk for
inadvertently getting a kickback, as well as increasing the
risk of losing your balance while working.
The log is lying on the ground.There is little risk of the
