OPERATING SAW WITH THE KICK GUARD

DEVICE

WARNING!

Study your safety and instruction manuals, and be sure you understand how to keep control of the

chain saw either with or without the Kick Guard

device.

WARNING!

The Kick Guard

device prevents rotational kickback when properly installed, but it cannot prevent

other chain saw mishaps. Always wear protective articles such as cut-resistant boots, gloves, and leg chaps, and

proper attire for chain sawing. Use the correct two-handed grip on the saw handles at all times. Position the saw

properly with the cutting plane away from the body, and maintain a balanced body position to the left of the saw.

Check that the Kick Guard

is correctly installed before each use, and is fastened securely to the guide bar.

Illustrations below show various applications, which can be performed
effectively and safely when the Kick Guard

device is in place on the bar

nose. Notice that the device is often used to protect the saw chain, as well
as adjacent objects such as walls, fences and trees. The Kick Guard

often

can be used against an obstruction as a bumper plate.

Using the Kick Guard

hen cutting in a brush pile eliminates the threat of

kickback and helps speed up brush removal. Cutting brush requires that

you be alert for brush and branches that may be whipped back at you.

Even when using the Kick Guard

device, you must be alert to control

the saw against the forces of gravity, push, pull and “skating.” Maintain

good footing and balance. Reaching above chest height is extremely

hazardous. Twisting and falling limbs are a hazard, which must always be

anticipated.

Before buying a new guide bar or new saw chain, check first with your

ECHO dealer to be sure the new configuration can be mounted to your

ECHO chain saw. Be sure ECHO’s Kick Guard

device can be mounted

onto the new guide bar. The tip of the bar must be equipped with the
proper Kick Guard

device mounting holes.
