22. Do not operate the chain saw in a tree

unless specially trained to do so.

23. Guard against kickback. Kickback is the

upward motion of the guide bar which

occurs when the saw chain at the nose of

the guide bar contacts an object.

Kickback can lead to dangerous loss of

control of the chain saw.

24. When transporting your chain saw, make

sure the appropriate guide bar scabbard

is in place.

KICKBACK SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR

CHAIN SAW USERS

WARNING

• 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 lightning fast 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 Iose control

of the saw, which could result in serious

personal injury.

• Do not rely exclusively on the safety

devices built into your saw. As a chain

saw user you should take several steps to

keep cutting jobs free from accident or

injury.

(1) With a basic understanding of kickback

you can reduce or eliminate the element

of surprise. Sudden surprise contributes

to accidents.

(2) Keep a good grip on the saw with both

hands, the right hand on the rear handle,

and the left hand on the front handle,

when the engine is running. Use a firm

grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the

chain saw handles. A firm grip will help

you reduce kickback and maintain control

of the saw.

(3) Make certain 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, or any other obstruction

which could be hit while you are operating

the saw.

(4) Cut at high engine speeds.

5. For safe operation

(5) Do not overreach or cut above shoulder

height.

(6) Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and

maintenance instructions for the saw

chain.

(7) Only use replacement bars and chains

specified by the manufacturer or the

equivalent.
