BUCKING A LOG

Bucking a log is cutting a log into sections. Make

sure your footing is ﬁrm. Keep feet apart. Divide your

weight evenly on both feet. When possible, raise log

or section off ground. Do this by using limbs, logs,

chocks, etc.

When cutting through log, maintain control by reduc-

ing cutting pressure near end of cut. Do not relax your

grip on chain saw handles. Do not let moving chain

touch ground. Ground will dull moving chain. After

cutting through log, release trigger to turn saw off

before moving saw.

Follow directions below to buck a log.

Entire Length Of Log On Ground

Cut log from top (see Figure 10).

WARNING: Avoid kickback. Kickback

can result in severe injury or death. See

Kickback, pages 4 and 5, to avoid risk

of kickback.

WARNING:

• If on slope, make sure log will not roll

down hill. Secure log by using wooden

stakes. Drive wooden stakes into

ground on downhill side of log. Stand

on uphill side of log while cutting. Log

may roll after cutting.

• Never try cutting through two logs at

same time. This could increase the risk

of kickback.

• While cutting log, never hold log with

your hand, leg, or foot.

• While cutting log, never allow another

person to hold log.

• Turn off and unplug saw before moving

from one place to another.

Log Supported On One End

1. Make ﬁrst cut on underside of log (see Figure

11). Use top of guide bar to make this cut. Cut

1/3 through diameter of log. This cut will keep

section from splintering when cut.

2. Make second cut directly above ﬁrst cut. Cut

down to meet ﬁrst cut. This cut will keep log

from pinching guide bar and chain.

Log Supported On Both Ends

1. Make ﬁrst cut from above log (see Figure 12).

Cut 1/3 through diameter of log. This cut will

keep section from splintering when cut.

2. Make second cut on underside of log, directly

under ﬁrst cut. Use top of guide bar to make this

cut. Cut up to meet ﬁrst cut. This will keep log

from pinching guide bar and chain.
