Cutting with the bottom edge of the bar, i.e. from the top
of the object downwards, is known as cutting with a
pulling chain. In this case the chain saw pulls itself
towards the tree and the front edge of the chain saw body
rests naturally on the trunk when cutting. Cutting with a
pulling chain gives the operator better control over the
chain saw and the position of the kickback zone.

Basic cutting technique
General

Always use full throttle when cutting!
•
Reduce the speed to idle after every cut (running the
engine for too long at full throttle without any load, i.e.
without any resistance from the chain during cutting, can
lead to serious engine damage).

before making a cut:
1
Make sure the cutting equipment will not jam in the cut.
2

Is there a risk of kickback?
5
Do the conditions and surrounding terrain affect how
safely you can stand and move about?
safely you can stand and move about?
Two factors decide whether the chain will jam or the object
that you are cutting will split: the first is how the object is
supported before and after cutting, and the second is
whether it is in tension.
that you are cutting will split: the first is how the object is
supported before and after cutting, and the second is

In most cases you can avoid these problems by cutting in two
stages; from the top and from the bottom. You need to
support the object so that it will not trap the chain or split
during cutting.

WARNING! Never use a chain saw by
holding it with one hand. A chain saw is not

IMPORTANT! If the chain jams in the cut: stop the engine!
Don’t try to pull the chain saw free. If you do you may be
injured by the chain when the chain saw suddenly breaks
free. Use a lever to open up the cut and free the chain saw.
