be whipped toward you or pull you off
balance.
9. Carry the chain saw by the front
handle with the chain saw switched
off and away from your body. When
transporting or storing the chain saw
always fit the guide bar cover. Proper
handling of the chain saw will reduce the
likelihood of accidental contact with the
moving saw chain.
10.Follow instructions for lubricating,
chain tensioning and changing
accessories. Improperly tensioned
or lubricated chain may either break or
increase the chance for kickback.
11.Keep handles dry, clean, and free
from oil and grease. Greasy, oily
handles are slippery causing loss of
control.
12.Cut wood only. Do not use chain
saw for purposes not intended. For
example: do not use chain saw for
cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood
building materials. Use of the chain saw
for operations different than intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
13. Using of a residual current device with
a tripping current of 30 mA or less is
recommended.
Causes and operator prevention of
kickback
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of
the guide bar touches an object, or when the
wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in
the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a
sudden reverse reaction, kicking the guide
bar up and back towards the operator.
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 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
Chain saw
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.

Instructions concerning the proper
techniques for basic felling, limbing, and
cross-cutting
1. Felling a tree
When bucking and felling operations are
being performed by two or more persons at
the same time, the felling operations should
be separated from the bucking operation by
a distance of at least twice the height of the
tree being felled. Trees should not be felled in
a manner that would endanger any person,
strike any utility line or cause any property
damage. If the tree does make contact with
any utility line, the company should be
notified immediately.
The chain saw operator should keep on the
uphill side of the terrain as the tree is likely to
roll or slide downhill after it is felled.
An escape path should be planned and
cleared as necessary before cuts are started.
The escape path should extend back and
diagonally to the rear of the expected line of
fall as illustrated in Figure 1.
Before felling is started, consider the natural
