Kickback information
WARNING: A kickback can cause
serious injury or death to the operator or
others. To decrease the risk you must
know the causes of kickback and how to
prevent them.
A kickback occurs when the kickback zone of the guide
bar touches an object. A kickback can occur suddenly
and with large force, which throws the product in the
direction of the operator.
Kickback always occurs in the cutting plane of the
guide bar. Usually, the product is thrown against the
operator but can also move in a different direction. It is
how you use the product when the kickback occurs
that causes the direction of the movement.
Kickback only occurs if the kickback zone of the guide
bar touches an object. Do not let the kickback zone
touch an object.
A smaller bar tip radius decreases the force of the
kickback.
Use a low kickback saw chain to decrease the effects
of kickback. Do not let the kickback zone touch an
object.
WARNING: No saw chain fully
prevents kickback. Always obey the
instructions.
Common questions about kickback
Will the hand always engage the chain brake
during a kickback?
No. It is necessary to use some force to push the
front hand guard forward. If you do not use the
force necessary, the chain brake will not be
engaged. You must also hold the handles of the
product stable with two hands during work. If a
kickback occurs, it is possible that the chain brake
does not stop the saw chain before it touches you.
There are also some positions in which your hand
can not touch the front hand guard to engage the
chain brake.
Will the inertia release mechanism always engage
the chain brake during kickback?
No. First, the chain brake must operate correctly.
Refer to
Maintenance and checks of the safety
devices on the product on page 25
for instructions
about how to do a check of the chain brake. We
recommend you to do this each time before you
use the product. Second, the force of the kickback
must be large to engage the chain brake. If the
chain brake is too sensitive, it can engage during
rough operation.
Will the chain brake always protect me from injury
during a kickback?
No. The chain brake must operate correctly to give
protection. The chain brake must also be engaged
during a kickback to stop the saw chain. If you are
near the guide bar, it is possible that the chain
brake does not have time to stop the saw chain
before it hits you.
WARNING: Only you and the correct
working technique can prevent kickbacks.
To start the product
1. Do a check of the power trigger and power trigger
lockout. Refer to
