Be extremely careful with partially fallen
trees which are poorly supported.
When the tree hangs or for some other
reason does not fall completely, set the
saw aside and pull the tree down with a
cable winch, block and tackle or tractor.
If you try to cut it down with your saw,
you may be injured.

In order to reduce the risk of personal
injury, never stand directly behind the
tree when it is about to fall, since part of
the trunk may split and come back
towards the operator (barber- chairing),
or the tree may jump backwards off the
stump. Always keep to the side of the
falling tree. When the tree starts to fall,
withdraw the bar, shut off the engine and
walk away on the preplanned escape
path. Watch out for falling limbs.
Drive wedges into the felling cut where
necessary to control the fall.

If the tip of the bar contacts a wedge,
it may cause kickback. Wedges should
be of wood or plastic – never steel,
which can damage the chain.

Engage the bumper spikes of the chain-
saw directly behind the hinge and pivot
the saw around this point only as far as
the hinge. The spiked bumper rolls
against the trunk.
