KICK-BACK
■ Kick-backmayoccurwhenthenoseoftheguidebar
touches an object or when the wood closes in and
pinchesthesawchaininthe cut.Thenoseofguide
barcontactinsomecasesmaycausealightning-fast
reverse reaction kicking the guide bar up and back
towardtheoperator.Pinchingthesawchainalongthe
topof theguidebar maypush theguidebar rapidly
back toward 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
chainsawuser,youshouldtakeseveralstepstokeep
yourcuttingjobsfreefromaccidentorinjury.
1. With a basic understanding of kick-back, you can

withyourthumbsandngersencirclingthechainsaw
handles.A rmgrip togetherwith a stiffleft armwill
help you maintain control of the saw if kick-back
occurs.
3. Makesurethattheareainwhichyouarecuttingisfree
fromobstructions.Donotletthenoseoftheguidebar
contactalog,branch,fence,oranyotherobstruction
thatcouldbehitwhileyouareoperatingthesaw.
4. Cutathighenginespeeds.Alwayscutwiththeengine
runningatfullspeed.Fullysqueezethethrottletrigger
andmaintainasteadycuttingspeed.
