•
Do not go away from the product when the engine is
on. Stop the engine and make sure that the chain
does not turn.
•
Disconnect the spark plug when you assemble the
product, put the product into storage or do the
maintenance.
Kickbacks, skating, bouncing and
dropping
Different forces moves the product and this can cause
the operator to loss of control of the product.
•
Skating is when the guide bar moves quickly across
the wood.
•
Bouncing is when the guide bar lifts off the wood
and touches it again and again.
•
Dropping is when the product drops down after the
cut is made. This can cause the moving chain to
touch a part of the body or other objects, causing
injury or damage.
•
Kickback is when the end of the guide bar touches
objects and moves rearward, up or suddenly
forward. Kickback also occurs when the wood closes
in and pinches the saw chain during the cut. Loss of
control can result if the product touches an object in
wood.
•
Rotational Kickback can occur when the
moving chain touches an object at the top of the
guide bar. This can cause the chain to bury into
the object and cause the chain to stop
immediately. The result is a very fast, reverse
reaction that moves the guide bar up and
rearward in the direction of the operator.
•
Pinch-Kickback can occur when the saw chain
suddenly stops during the cut. The wood closes
in and pinches the moving saw chain along the
top of the guide bar. The sudden stop of the
chain reverse the chain force and causes the
product to move in the opposite direction of the
turn of the chain. The product moves rearward in
the direction of the operator.
•
Pull-In can occur when the saw chain suddenly
stops when the moving chain touches an object
in the wood along the bottom of the guide bar.
The sudden stop pulls the product forward and
away from the operator, which can easily cause
the loss of control of the product by the operator.
Make sure that you understand the different forces and
how to prevent them before you operate the product.
To avoid kickbacks, skating,
bouncing and dropping
•

•
Obey the manufacturer's sharpening and

The risk of kickback is increased if the depth gauge
setting is too large.
