Limbing and Trimming
Electric Chain Saw
makes contact with the wood. Use the metal jaw teeth
to secure the saw onto the wood before starting to
cut. (See Fig. T)
Do not operate the JawSaw with arms fully extended
or attempt to saw areas which are difficult to reach, or
on a ladder. (See Fig. U)
CUTTING WOOD UNDER TENSION (See Fig. V)
WARNING: When cutting a limb that is
under tension, use extreme caution. Be
alert for wood springing back. When wood
tension is released, the limb could spring back
and strike operator causing severe injury or
death.
When sawing logs supported on both ends, start the
cut from above(Y) about 1/3 of the diameter into the
log and then finish the cut (Z) from below, in order to
avoid contact of the JawSaw with the ground. When
sawing logs supported on only one end, start the cut
from below (Y) about 1/3 of the diameter into the log
and finish the cut from above (Z) in order to avoid log
splitting or jamming of the tool.
LIMBING A TREE (See Fig. W)
Limbing is removing the branches from a fallen tree.
When limbing leave larger lower limbs to support the
log off the ground. Remove the small limbs in one cut
as illustrated. Branches under tension should be cut
from the bottom up to avoid binding the JawSaw.
BUCKING A LOG (See Fig. X)
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is important
to make sure your footing is firm and your weight is
evenly distributed on both feet. Follow the simple
directions for easy cutting.
WARNING: (See Fig. Y)
• Ifonslope,makesurelogwillnotrolldownhill.
Secure log by using
wooden stakes. Drive wooden stakes into ground
on downhill side of log. Stand on uphill side of log
while cutting. Log may roll after cutting. (See Fig.
Y)

This could increase the risk of kickback.
