  NIOSH FACE Program - In-house Report 2004-04
The feller buncher operator approached the tree, which was approximately 104 feet in height and 3 feet in diameter with the machine and made an initial cut on the east side of the tree.
After the tree fell, the feller buncher operator turned to view the tree lying on the ground and observed the victim lying face down and oriented with his feet to the north and head to the south under the tree (Diagram 2).
According to the feller buncher operator’s manual, the proper use of the machine with the feller head saw attachment was to have both the accumulator arms and grab arms opened when approaching a tree.

 Feller buncher - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A feller buncher is a large logging machine with an attachment that cuts trees in place.
The machine then places the cut tree on a stack suitable for a skidder or forwarder, or other means of transport (yarding) for further processing (e.g., delimbing, bucking, loading, or chipping).
In cut-to-length logging a harvester performs the tasks of a feller buncher additionally doing the delimbing and bucking of the trees as well.
