LIMBING
First remove the limbs that are not supporting the fallen
tree (A) (Fig, 16) before bucking the tree into shorter
length. When removing the non-supporting
limbs make
sure that when cut they will not fall towards the operator
or the saw, Once the tree has been bucked into shorter
length
(see BUCKING), remove the supporting limbs (B),
Atl supporting limbs under significant tension (C) should
be cut from the bottom up to avoid binding the saw.

BUCKING
Bucking is cutting a fallen log into lengths. Make sure you
have a good footing and stand uphill of the tog when cut-
ting on sloping ground. If possible, the log should be sup-
ported so that the end to be cut off is not resting on the
ground. If the log is supported at both ends and you must
cut in the middle, make a downward cut halfway through
the log and then make the undercut. This will prevent the
log from pinching the bar and chain. Be careful that the
chain does not cut into the ground when bucking as this
causes rapid dulling of the chain.

When bucking on a slope, always stand on the uphill side.
1.
Log supported along entire length: Cut from top (over-
buck), being careful to avoid cutting into the ground
(Fig, 17).
2,
Log supported on 1 end: First, cut from bottom
(underbuck) 1/3 diameter of tog to avoid splintering,
Second, cut from above (overbuck) to meet first cut
and avoid pinching (Fig. 18),
3.
Log supported on both ends: First, overbuck 1/3 diame-
ter of log to avoid splintering, Second, underbuck to
meet first cut and avoid pinching (Fig. 19).
NOTE; The best way to hold a log while bucking is to use
a sawhorse. When this is not possible, the log
should be raised and supported by the limb
stumps or by using supporting logs. Be sure the
log being cut is securely supported,
