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 user.
THE FOLLOWING PRECAUTIONS
should be followed to minimize
kickback:
GRIP SAW FIRMLY – Hold the pole
saw firmly with both hands when the
motor is running. Use a firm grip
with thumb and fingers of one hand
encircling the control handle, and the
thumb and fingers of the other hand
encircling the fiberglass pole.
DO NOT OVERREACH.
KEEP PROPER FOOTING
and
balance at all times.
DO NOT LET
the nose of the guide
bar contact a log, branch, ground or
other obstruction.
ONLY USE REPLACEMENT bars and
chains specified by the manufacturer.
Store these instructions by folding in
half and sliding into the slot in the back
of the wall charging rack.

OPERATION
CAUTION: Do not use a replacement
chain unless:
It has been designated as
meeting the ANSI B175
kickback performance
requirements on that specific
powerhead;
It has been designated as
“Low-Kickback” saw chain
in accordance with ANSI
B175.1; or
It is the saw manufacturer’s
replacement catalogue (or
equivalent) number.
Low-Kickback saw chain is a chain
which has met the kickback performance
requirements of ANSI B175.1 when
tested on the representative sample of
chain saws.

– A guide bar which has been
demonstrated to reduce kickback
significantly.
Replacement Saw Chain – A chain
that complies with the kickback
