causes kickback and that you can avoid it by
taking care and using the correct working
technique. By being prepared you reduce
the risk.
The word kickback is used to describe the sudden
reaction that causes the chainsaw and guide bar to jump
off an object when the upper quadrant of the tip of the
bar, known as the kickback zone, touches an object.
Kickback always occurs in the cutting plane of the guide
bar. Normally the chainsaw and guide bar are thrown
backwards and upwards towards the user. However, the
chainsaw may move in a different direction depending
on the way it was being used when the kickback zone of
the guide bar touched the object.
Kickback only occurs if the kickback zone of the guide
bar touches an object.
To consider before making a cut
• Make sure to always use full throttle when cutting!
• Make sure to reduce the speed to idle after every
cut.
CAUTION: Running the engine for too
long at full throttle without any load, for
instance without any resistance from the
saw chain during cutting, can lead to
serious engine damage.

• Be careful so that the cutting equipment does not
jam in the cut. Two factors decide whether the saw
chain will jam or the object that you are cutting will
split: the first is how the object is supported before
and after cutting, and the second is whether it is in
tension.
WARNING: If the saw chain jams in the
cut: Stop the engine! Don't try to pull the
chainsaw free. If you do you may be
injured by the saw chain when the
chainsaw suddenly breaks free. Use a
lever to open up the cut and free the
chainsaw.
• Make sure the object you are cutting will not split.
• Make sure the saw chain will not strike the ground or
any other object during or after cutting.
• Consider whether there is a risk of kickback.
