•
Kickback may occur when the nose
or tip of the guide bar touches an ob-
ject, or when the wood closes in and
pinches the saw chain in the cut
(cf. fig. b).
•
Tip contact in some cases may cause
a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the
guide bar up and back towards the
operator (cf. fig. a).
•
Pinching the saw chain along the top
of the guide bar may push the guide
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 on the safety
devices built into the electric pole-
mounted pruner. As a user of the elec-
tric pole-mounted pruner, you should
undertake various measures to enable
accident-free and injury-free working.
