9.5 HOLDING THE CHAIN SAW
(FIGS.22 – 23)
Do not be afraid to hold the chain saw power head
close in to the body. In this position the weight of
the saw will be easy to bear and in the event of a
kickback will be more controllable. Firmly grip the
rear handle pulling it tight in to hip/thigh. With the
left hand grip the front handle with thumb on the
underside. In this position with the body turned
slightly towards the saw, should a kickback occur
the left arm will be stronger to brace against the
force of the kickback, or if unable to withstand, the
saw chain should avoid the face/head.
Try to work at hip height, or bend the knees instead
of the back. This will be more comfortable and a
safer stance to adopt.
