9 KICKBACK SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
KICKBACK may occur when the NOSE or TIP of the guide bar touches an object, or when 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 toward the operator.
PINCHING the saw chain along the BOTTOM of the guide bar may PULL the saw forward away
from the operator.
