A felling lever is used to direct the fall of a tree and facilitate the breaking of the trunk through a simple lever effect. It is also used to rotate wood logs, especially if equipped with a device for attaching such an accessory. It is inserted into a cut called the felling cut, facing a larger cut called the felling notch. These two cuts are made with a chainsaw or saw, depending on the trunk diameter. The felling lever allows the tree to be inclined, initiating its fall over the breaking reserve in the direction determined by the notch. It is important to keep the back straight and use the muscles of the thighs to exert the inclination pressure. The felling lever should not be used by pushing it, as the user may risk tipping over and falling over the tree
