My Winter Car – What does Firewood do
Since the game takes place in winter, one of the sources of heat would be to burn Firewood. At the start of the game, you will get an ax to use on the logs from the firewood pile and collect firewood. You will spot firewood piles at the cottage or the woodshed.
How to get Firewood
Use F to equip the ax, then aim at the wood logs using LMB to pick them up and chop them. Later in the game, after picking up the woodcutting job from Livaloinen, you get to use the firewood cutter along with your tractor and trailer to cut and gather firewood. Each log chopped will give you 2x firewood.
How to use Firewood
Firewood is used at your cottage or your parents’ house to fire up the sauna or the fireplace. This is a great way to keep yourself warm and also cook food. Each wood piece emits heat for 2 minutes and 30 seconds, so using 4 pieces will give you heat for around 10 minutes. Cooking food requires ember, which appears after 5-7 minutes of using chopped Firewood at the fireplace.

FAQs
Where do I find the firewood cutter?
The wood cutter is located behind your parents’ house, near the woodshed where the tractor is.
How do I attach the tractor to the wood cutter?
Hop into the tractor and start it up by using the hand throttle and turning the ignition. Back up the tractor towards the wood cutter so that the rear end of the tractor faces the cutter.
Pull the rear hitch lever to the right of the driver’s seat to hook it up. Next, get out of the tractor and attach the drive shaft of the cutter under the tractor to fix it in place.
How do I get the woodcutting job?
You need to either wait for Livaloinen to call you, or dial 08-609553 on your phone to call him. If you call him, you need to purchase the Corris Rivett from him first before he offers you the job.
