loaded 2 never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy 3 keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot 4 be sure of your target and what lies beyond it knives 1 never cut toward yourself 2 always cut away from yourself 3 never cut yourself and if you drop a knife or gun let it fall chainsaws 1 always wear your safety gear when running your saw hard hat eye face hearing protection cut resistant protection for your legs heavy boots gloves depending on work conditions 2 safety devices on the saw must be in working order front hand guard chain brake chain catcher throttle lockout and right hand guard 3 hold the saw on the ground or lock it between your knees for starting no drop starts set the chain brake before cranking 4 the engine must idle reliably without turning the chain 5 the chain must be sharpened properly including properly set depth gauges 6 the chain must be adjusted to remove slack and still run freely 7 the operator must understand the forces on different parts of the bar as the saw runs push pull kickback and attack 8 both hands must always be on the saw when the chain is running the thumbs must be wrapped around the handles both feet should be firmly planted on the ground 9 the operator must always know where the end of the bar is and what it s doing 10 don t let the upper kickback corner of the bar contact anything when the chain is running unless the tip has been buried with the lower corner 11 let off of the throttle before pulling out of a pinch on the top part of the bar 12 make a plan for every tree you cut assess hazards lean escape routes forward cuts and back cuts evaluate the forward or backward lean and the side lean of every tree you cut know your limits 13 clear your work area and your escape path of brush vines and other hazards that can trip you or catch your saw 14 escape from the bullseye when the tree tips 90 of accidents happen within 12 feet of the stump go more than 15 feet and stay out of the bullseye until things stop falling 15 keep spectators away more than twice the height of the tree in the direction it will fall 16 don t cut alone 17 keep your body and the swamper s out of the line of the bar in case of a kickback 18 set the brake when taking over two steps or when moving through tripping hazards keep your trigger finger off of the throttle when you are moving 19 do not operate a chainsaw from a ladder operating with your feet off the ground requires special training 20 do not cut above your shoulders 21 springpoles must be shaved on the inside of the apex between the ascending and descending sides if the apex is higher than you shoulders stand under the springpole and cut it low on the descending side it will release upward away from you leaning and heavily loaded poles that are too small to bore cut for a hinge should be shaved on the compressed side until they fold 22 do not cut a tree that is holding up a lodged tree do not work under a lodged tree think about a mouse trying to steal the cheese out of a trap 23 instruct your swampers and helpers to never approach you from behind or the sides to within the reach of your saw when you are cutting if you pull out of a cut with the chain running or have a severe kickback the swamper can be killed if he is coming up behind you 24 quit when you are tired 25 pause and review reflect when you are being pushed you may be pushed into danger do not let pressure cause you to ignore safety rules cutting dead and rotten trees is extremely risky and your safety always comes down to basics and following the rules build a good hinge even if there is just a thin shell to work with support the back side of the hinge with wedges if the tree is punky or hollow before you cut out the back don t fight side lean or back lean when cutting unsound trees release it quickly and get away from the stump tell your co workers what your steps are before you crank your saw you will live long drop that tree where you want it your falling plan basic falling cuts put it where you want it part one put it where you want it part two put it where you want it part three blog themesong true blue sam
