  • Can Stihl MS391 chainsaw with 20” bar fell 26” diameter hickory tree?
    So today I decided to put Mikes brand new chainsaw to the test by felling the largest hickory try on our property.

    You have no idea of the danger you were in when standing behind that stump. At any given second you could have been hurt bad or killed right there. And there was no reason to get the saw pinched. I'm a third generation logger, i fell timber 30 yrs with a chainsaw. I started working with my father in 1957.

    That’s why you make those cuts at a harder angle has the right idea but cut it at a 45 degree or better so when the tree cuts lose the angle is so steep it can’t sit back on itself! Just a tip great video I have that same saw they are great saw for the price! 60cc saw for right at 600 or less brand new! Can’t beat it! Cheers fellas stay safe out there 🍻

    • @canamrider7195
      @canamrider7195 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sometimes. I have notched the top and then pinched from the under cut. IMO it is about how much of a notch to cut. Only afterwards can you make a good estimate. After it is too late, or a rare success.

      *it would if done correctly* but is not the safe way in this situation.. buddy is lucky it didnt pinch and kickback. if stuck on the stump first step is slowly take out fibers in the notch (from the back cut) and it usually will roll off the stump and out of the tangle..but what do i know as a certified arborist. as well the back pressure on the stump is insane ive seen equal or greater trees throw the butt 15+ feet behind the stump. could easily kill someone
      *fuck not wanting to here the "safety crap" your company is a shit show with death or serious injury right around the corner* , learn proper techniques or get out of the game your a firewood buisness not arborists, plently of guys are putting wood on the ground you could have for free.
