Follow these steps for safe and effective use of your sawhorse.

1. Position the sawhorse: Place the sawhorse on a firm, level surface.
2. Load the log: Carefully place the log onto the serrated supports of the sawhorse. The teeth are designed to grip the wood securely, preventing it from rolling during cutting. Adjust the log's position to ensure maximum stability.
3. Prepare your chainsaw: Ensure your chainsaw is in good working order, fueled, and the chain is sharp and properly tensioned.
4. Begin cutting: With your chainsaw, make cuts through the log. Always maintain a firm grip on the chainsaw and stand in a balanced position. Avoid cutting directly into the metal sawhorse.
5. Remove cut pieces: Once a section is cut, carefully remove it from the sawhorse.

Proper maintenance will extend the life of your sawhorse.

• Nettoyage: After each use, remove sawdust, wood chips, and debris from the sawhorse. A stiff brush or compressed air can be used.
• Inspection: Regularly check all bolts and nuts for tightness. Tighten any loose fasteners. Inspect the metal frame for any signs of damage, bending, or excessive wear.
• Protection contre la rouille : The sawhorse is made of galvanized metal, offering good rust resistance. However, for prolonged outdoor storage, it is advisable to cover it or store it in a dry place to further protect it from the elements.
• Stockage: The sawhorse is foldable for convenient, space-saving storage.
