Kickout
Kickout is also a reactive force caused by
resistance to cutting, but the direction of blade
thrust is lateral (to the left or right of the blade),
instead of forward or back toward the operator.
In most cases, Push, Pull, and Kickout can be
reduced or eliminated by:
• Using the correct blade for the cutting job
• Using properly sharpened blades
• Applying consistent, even force to the blade
during the cut
• Avoiding obstacles and ground hazards
• Using extra care when cutting harder materials such as extremely dry brush,
saplings, and small trees
• Cutting from a stable, secure position
Blade Assembly
Follow the instructions in the Operator’s
Manual to install a blade on your unit.
• ALWAYS
wear gloves when handling and
assembling blade to unit.
• ALWAYS
use correct assembly hardware
when installing blade and debris shield.
• ALWAYS
use correct blade arbor size.
• ALWAYS
install blade with teeth pointed in
direction of rotation.
• ALWAYS
tighten blade hardware securely
using properly sized tools
• ALWAYS
use a new cotter pin when
installing or replacing blades.
• ALWAYS
check to make sure head
locking tool and hex wrench have
been removed from cutting head after
assembly.
Blade Cutting Capacities
Do not exceed recommended blade cutting
capacity. Use a chain saw for larger trees.
Exceeding cutting capacity can cause blade
binding in cut, blade damage, and risk of
injury from blade breakage during cutting.
Cutting capacity depends on blade diameter
- see operator’s manual or catalog for more information.
