Hazards caused by kickback

2. Contact point (or sticking point during a cut) in the upper area of the guide rail:
Danger:
• The chainsaw is kicked suddenly in the
direction of the operator.
• The magnitude of the acceleration and the
uncontrolled response of the operator can
result in serious accidents.
Experienced users can perform a so-called "backhand cut". This can only be done by anticipating the
sudden acceleration of the tool and supporting the chainsaw in a rearward direction with your thigh
before positioning the tool for the cut and while performing the cut.
Inexperienced users must not use the "backhand cut"!
3. Contact point in the lower area of the guide rail (bumper spikes (a) as the point at which the
chainsaw is positioned on the cutting object):
Safe application:
• The chainsaw is pulled towards the object
being sawn.
• As the bumper spikes on the engine housing
are positioned on the object being sawn, the
chainsaw cannot be accelerated away.
! The operator is able to control the tool safely.
The following general guidelines should be followed in order to avoid kickback:
• Always hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands. Position your right hand on the rear handle and
your left handle on the front handle.
• Before positioning the saw for the cut, apply the throttle and, with the saw chain running, start the
cut on the underside of the guide bar as close as possible to the engine housing.
• Never cut more than one branch at a time. When removing branches, bear in mind that other
branches may inadvertently come into contact with the saw chain. When cutting to length, look out
for other trunks which may be close nearby.
• Special care is required when continuing cuts which have already been started.
• Carefully watch the guide bar during the cut.
• Look out for forces which could compress the cut gap and cause the saw chain to become trapped,
particularly on objects which are under tension.
• Always follow the correct procedure for sharpening the saw chain. In the process, pay particular
attention to the correct height of the depth limiter.
Professional users can use special working techniques which must only be carried out by experienced
users. We recommend that anyone who wishes to safely learn about the more difficult techniques
which are not described here should attend a special course (e.g. at specialist forestry training
centre).
