tree in the direction of fall and then make a hori-
zontal cut (back cut) on the side opposite to the
undercut.
Make the undercut: This will give the tree direc-
tion and guidance.
Check the direction of fall: If you have to correct
the undercut, always recut over the entire width.
Call out „Timber!"
Only now make the back cut, which must be hig-
her than the sole of the undercut. Insert wedges
in good time.
Leave the bridge in place as it will function as a
hinge. If you cut through the bridge, the tree will
fall randomly.
Fell the tree by driving a wedge into the back cut,
not by sawing through it.
When the tree falls, step back and watch the
crown. Wait for the crown to stop swinging. Do
not continue working under branches which have
got stuck.
Do not fell trees:
if you can no longer distinguish details within the
danger zone, e.g. owing to fog, rain, snow drifts
or twilight,
if the direction of fall cannot be reliably estimated
owing to wind or gusts of wind. Felling work on
sloping ground, black ice, frozen or dewy ground
is safe only if you can get a firm foothold.
To switch off:
Pull the plug out of the power socket. To fell the tree,
you must drive a wedge into the back cut. When
retreating after making the back cut, watch out for
falling branches.
Accessories:
Use only original spare parts:
Chain bar 45.003.31
Saw chain 45.003.11
