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 injury to the
user.
the following precautions should
be followed to minimize kickback:
