2. Bucking a log
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. When possible, the
log should be raised and supported by the use of
limbs, logs or chocks. Follow the simple directions for
easy cutting.
When the log is supported along its entire length
as illustrated in Figure 2, it is cut from the top
(overbuck), avoid contacting ground as this will
greatly reduce the chain sharpness.

When the log is supported on one end, as illustrated
in Figure 3, cut 1/3 the diameter from the underside
( underbuck) (1). Then make the finished cut by
overbucking (2) to meet the first cut.

When the log is supported on both ends, as

Figure 4
When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill
side of the log, as illustrated in Figure 5. When
"cutting through", to maintain complete control
release the cutting pressure near the end of the
cut without relaxing your grip on the pruning saw
handles. Don't let the chain contact the ground. After
completing the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop
before you move the pruning saw. Always stop the
motor before moving from tree to tree.
