Kickback (Blade thrust)
1. Kickback (blade thrust) is a sudden reaction to a
caught or bound cutting blade. Once it occurs, the
tool is thrown sideway or toward the operator at
great force and it may cause serious injury.
2. Kickback occurs particularly when applying the
blade segment between 12 and 2 o'clock to solids,
bushes and trees with 3 cm or larger diameter.

3. To avoid kickback:
−
Apply the segment between 8 and 11 o'clock.
−
Never apply the segment between 12 and 2
o'clock.
−
Never apply the segment between 11 and 12
o'clock and between 2 and 5 o'clock, unless
the operator is well trained and experienced
and does it at his/her own risk.
−
Never use cutting blades close to solids,
such as fences, walls, tree trunks and stones.
−
Never use cutting blades vertically, for such
operations as edging and trimming hedges.
