WARNING: Make sure that the saw chain does not get caught in the trunk during cutting. Obey the instructions below.
  1. Cut on the pull stroke approximately ⅓ through the trunk.
  2. Cut through the remaining part of the trunk on the push stroke to complete the cut.
WARNING: Stop the motor if the saw chain gets caught in the trunk. Use a lever to open up the kerf and remove the product. Do not try to pull the product out by hand. This can result in injury when the product suddenly breaks free.
