the tension in the wood fibres is released the spring loaded limb may strike 
the operator and/or throw the chain saw out of control. 

9. 

Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings. 

The slender 

material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off 
balance. 

10.  

Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the chain saw switched off 

and away from your body. When transporting or storing the chain saw 
always fit the guide bar cover. 

Proper handling of the chain saw will reduce 

the likelihood of accidental contact with the moving saw chain. 

11. 

Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and changing 
accessories. 

Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or 

increase the chance for kickback. 

12. 

Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. 

Greasy, oily 

handles are slippery causing

 

loss of control. 

13. 

Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for purposes not intended. For 
example: do not use chain saw for cutting plastic, masonry or 
non-wood building materials. 

Use of the chain saw for operations different 

than intended could result in a hazardous situation. 

14. 

Causes and operator prevention of kickback: 

 

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 sudden 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 upon the safety devices built 
into your saw. As a chain saw user, you should take several steps to keep 
your cutting jobs free from accident or injury. 

 

Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or 
conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below: 

 

Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw 

handles, with both hands on the saw and position your body and arm to
