Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings because slender material may catch
the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring back so that you will not be struck when
the tension in the wood fibers is released.
Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil or fuel mixture.
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.
When transporting your chain saw, make sure the appropriate guide bar cover is in place. Securely
place the machine during transport to prevent loss of fuel, damage or injury.
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 lose 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 sur-
prise. 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 main-
tain control of the saw. Don’t let go.
(3) Make certain that the area in which you’re 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) Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
(6) Follow manufacturers sharpening and maintenance instructions for saw chain.
(7) Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the equivalent.
