Always use the correct equipment.
Always have well adjusted equipment.
Follow the safety instructions.
Organise the work well.
Always use full throttle when applying the blade.
Always use a sharp blade.
•
When applying the blade
to heavier stems the risk of
kickback increases. You
should therefore avoid
applying the blade on the
cutting area between 12
and 3 o‘clock.
Avoid stones.
Guide the direction of fall (use the wind).
!
WARNING!
• To fell to the left, the
lower section of the tree
should carry to the right.
Angle the blade and move
it with a resolute
movement diagonally
down to the right. At the
same time press against the
stem using the blade
guard. Apply the blade on
the area between 3-5
o‘clock. Use full throttle
when applying the blade.
Avoid cutting in the cutting region
between 12 and 3 o‘clock on the blade.
Kickback can occur due to the blade‘s
rotation speed in this area of the blade
when applied on thick stems.
Working methods
Before you start clearing, check the clearing area, its
condition, slopes, if there are stones, pits, etc.

Thereafter start at the end which is easiest, and make a good

to the left. Apply the blade
on the area between 3 and

blade‘s direction of
rotation carries the lower
section of the tree to the
left.

•
The length of the
pathway should be
approx. 75 m. Move the
fuelling station as work
progresses.
On sloping ground the
pathway should run
parallel to the slope. It is
far easier to work along a
slope then up and down
a slope.
•
The pathway should be
planned so that you
avoid going over ditches
or other obstacles. Also
adapt the pathway to the
wind conditions so that
the cleared stems fall on
the part of the stand that
has been cleared.
•
To fell a tree forwards the
lower section of the tree
should be drawn
backwards. Draw the blade
backwards with a quick
and resolute movement.
