Bucking
Bucking is cutting a log into sections.
!Warning!
When bucking, do not stand on the log. 
Make sure the log will not roll downhill. If 
on a slope, stand on the uphill side of the 
log. Watch out for rolling logs.
Cut only one log at a time.
Shattered wood should be cut very 
carefully. Sharp slivers of wood may be 
caught and flung in the direction of the 
operator of the saw.
When cutting small logs, place log 
through "V" - shaped supports on top of 
a sawhorse. Never permit another 
person to hold the log. Never hold the 
log with your leg or foot.
Logs under strain: 
Risk of pinching! Always start relieving 
cut (1) at compression side.Then make 
bucking cut (2) at tension side. 
If the saw pinches, stop the engine and 
remove it from the log.
Only properly trained professionals 
should work in an area where the logs, 
limbs and roots are tangled. Working in 
“blow down“ areas is extremely 
hazardous.
Drag the logs into a clear area before 
cutting. Pull out exposed and cleared 
logs first.
