Bucking a Log
•
If you are cutting branches from a fallen tree or
cutting a log into lengths, support the log off the
ground (preferably on a sawbuck); refer to
20.
Figure 20
•
If the log is supported on an end, cut from the top.
If the chain saw binds in the cut, do not attempt
to free it by running the motor. Shut off the saw,
then use a wedge to pry open the cut and release
the saw.
•
If the log is supported on both ends, start from
the top and cut about a third of the way through
the log (Figure 20A). Make a second cut from the
underside to meet the first cut
keeps the log from pinching the saw.
•
If the log is supported along its entire length, cut
all the way through the log from the top.
•
If the log is supported on both ends but not in the
middle, cut a third of the diameter from the top,
then either cut from the bottom or roll the log over
to meet the first cut
(Figure 20B). This
(Figure 21).
