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 chainsaw 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 chainsaw handles, with both hands on the saw and
position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Kickback forces can be controlled by the operator,
if proper precautions are taken. Do not let go of the chainsaw.
- Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height. This helps prevent unintended tip contact and enables
better control of the chainsaw in unexpected situations.
- Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars and chains may
cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
- Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing the depth
gauge height can lead to increased kickback.
Additional Chainsaw Safety Warnings
• It is recommended to cut logs on a saw-horse or cradle when operating the product the first time.
• Ensure all guards, handles and spiked bumper are properly fitted and are in good condition.
• Persons using this chainsaw should be in good health. The operator should be alert, have good vision, mobility, balance
and manual dexterity. If there is any doubt, do not operate the chainsaw.
• Do not start using the product until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path away from
the falling tree.
• Beware of the emission of lubricant mist and saw dust. Wear a mask or respirator if required.
• Do not cut vines and/or small undergrowth (less than 75 mm in diameter).
• Do not modify your tool in any way or use it to power any attachments or devices not recommended by the
manufacturer for your saw.
• There should be a first-aid kit containing large wound dressings and a means to summon attention (e.g., whistle) close
to the operator. A larger more comprehensive kit should be reasonably nearby.
