• Kickback may occur when the nose
or tip of the guide bar touches an ob-
ject, or when the wood closes in and
pinches the saw chain in the cut (cf.
image 1/fig. B).
• Tip contact in some cases may cause
a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the
guide bar up and back towards the
operator (cf. image 1/fig. A).
• 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 personal in-
jury. Do not rely exclusively upon the
safety devices built into your saw. As
a chain saw user, you should take
several steps to keep your cutting jobs
free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/
or incorrect operating procedures or
conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below:
• Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs
and fingers encircling the chain
saw handles, with both hands on
the saw and position your body
and arm to allow you to resist kick-
back forces.
Kickback forces can be
controlled by the operator, if proper
precautions are taken. Do not let go of
the chain saw.
• Do not overreach and do not cut
above shoulder height.
This helps
prevent unintended tip contact and
enables better control of the chain
saw in unexpected situations.
• Only use replacement bars and
chains specified by the manufac
-
turer.
Incorrect replacement bars and
chains may cause chain breakage
and/or kickback.
• Follow the manufacturer´s sharpen-
ing and maintenance instructions
for the saw chain.
Decreasing the
depth gauge height can lead to in-
creased kickback.
