cases may cause a sudden reverse reaction,
kicking the chain bar up and back towards the
operator. Pinching the saw chain along the
top of the chain bar may push the chain bar
rapidly back towards the operator. Either of
these reactions may cause you to lose control
of the saw which could result in serious
personal injury. DO NOT rely exclusively upon
the safety devices built into your saw. As a
chain saw user, you should take several steps
to keep your cutting jobs free from accident
or injury. Kickback is the result of tool misuse
and/or incorrect operating procedures or
conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below:
• Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and
fingers encircling the chain saw handles,
with both hands on the saw and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. Kickback forces can
be controlled by the operator, if proper
precautions are taken. DO NOT let go of
the chain saw.
• DO NOT overreach and DO NOT cut
above shoulder height. This helps
prevent unintended tip contact and
enables better control of the chain saw in
unexpected situations.
• Only use replacement bars and chains
specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect
replacement bars and chains may cause
chain breakage and/or kickback.
• Follow the manufacturer's sharpening
and maintenance instructions for the
saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge
height can lead to increased kickback.
