Handling frozen or wet wood

[Alan]

Cutting frozen or wet wood can be a pain. What do you do to get your saw to work well and keep things safe?

To cut frozen or wet wood, make sure you have a sharp chain with a low kerf and the right tension. Use a low-viscosity bar and chain oil to lower friction and help you cut better. And hey, don't forget your safety gear and to stand steady to keep yourself safe.

Great tips! Just a heads up though, be on the lookout for kickback and chain icing, especially when temperatures dip below zero. Those warm-up cuts can really make a difference, so don’t skip them!
