When supported along its whole length:
u Make a downward cut, but avoid cutting the earth as this
will blunt your saw chain quickly.
When supported at both ends:
u First, cut one third down to avoid splintering and second,
When supported at one end:
u First cut one third up to avoid splintering and second, cut
down to prevent splintering.
When on a slope:
u Always stand on the uphill side.
u Secure the workpiece using chocks or wedges. The user
or a bystander should not steady the log by sitting or
standing on it. Make sure that the saw chain does not
contact the ground.
This is strongly recommended whenever possible.
u Position the log in a stable position. Always cut on the
outside of the saw horse arms. Use clamps or straps to
secure the workpiece.

Before pruning consideration should be given to
conditions affecting the direction of fall including:
u The length and weight of the branch to be cut.
u Any unusual heavy limb structure or decay.
u Surrounding trees and obstacles including overhead.
u The wind speed and direction.
u The branch being intertwined with other branches.
The operator should consider access to the tree limb and the
direction of fall. The tree branch is liable to swing towards
the tree trunk. In addition to the user bystanders, objects and
property below the branch will be at risk.
u -
tion to a maximum depth of one third the diameter of the
branch.

How you should cut depends on how the log is supported.
Use a saw horse whenever possible. Always start a cut with
the saw chain running and the spiked bumper (20) in contact
-
tion of the spiked bumper against the wood.
Removing the branches from a fallen tree. When limbing,
leave larger lower limbs to support the log off the ground.
Remove the small limbs in one cut. Branches under tension
should be cut from the bottom of the branch towards the top to
avoid binding the chain saw.
Trim limbs from opposite side keeping tree stem between you
and saw. Never make cuts with saw between your legs or
straddle the limb to be cut.
