AMERICAN STANDARD SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Safety precautions for chain saw 
users

(ANSI B 175.1-2000 Annex C)

Kickback safety precautions

With a basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce 
or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprise 
contributes to accidents.

Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both hands, the 
right hand on the rear handle, and the left hand on the 
front handle, when the engine is running. Use a firm grip 
with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles. 
A firm grip will help you reduce kickback and maintain 
control of the saw. Don’t let go.

Make sure that the area in which you are cutting is free 
from obstacles. Do not let the nose of the guide bar 
contact a log, branch, or any other obstacle which could 
be hit while you are operating the saw.

Cut at high engine speeds.

Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.

Follow manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance 
instructions for the saw chain.

Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the 
manufacturer or the equivalent.

Other safety precautions

Do not operate a chain saw when you are fatigued.

Use safety footwear; snug-fitting clothing, protective 
gloves, and eye, hearing and head protection devices.

Use caution when handling fuel. Move the chain saw at 
least 10 feet (3 m) from the fueling point before starting 
the engine.

Do not allow other persons to be near the chain saw when 
starting or cutting with the chain saw. Keep bystanders 
and animals out of the work area.

Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure 
footing and a planned retreat path from the falling tree.

Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when 
the engine is running.

Before you start the engine, make sure that the saw chain 
is not contacting anything.

Carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the guide 
bar and saw chain to the rear, and the muffler away from 
your body.

Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly 
adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled. Be 
sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle 
control trigger is released.

Shut off the engine before setting the chain saw down.

Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and 
saplings because slender material may catch the saw 
chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.

When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for 
springback so that you will not be struck when the tension 
in the wood fibers is released.

Keep handles dry, clean and free of oil or fuel mixture.

Operate the chain saw only in well-ventilated areas.

Do not operate a chain saw in a tree unless you have 
been specifically trained to do so.

Do not operate a chain saw above shoulder height.

All chain saw service, other than the items listed in the 
operator’s/owner’s safety and maintenance instructions, 
should be performed by competent chain saw service 
personnel. (For example, if improper tools are used to 
remove the flywheel or if an improper tool is used to hold 
the flywheel in order to remove the clutch, structural 
damage to the flywheel could occur and subsequently 
cause the flywheel to burst.)

When transporting your chain saw, use the appropriate 
guide bar guard.

Note: This Annex is intended primarily for the consumer or 
occasional user.

!

WARNING! Kickback may occur when the 
nose or tip of the guide bar touches an 
object, or when the wood closes in and 
pinches the saw chain in the cut.

Tip contact in some cases may cause a 
lightning fast reverse reaction, kicking 
the guide bar up and back towards the 
operator.

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 injury.

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.

!

WARNING! Do not operate a chain saw 
with one hand! Serious injury to the 
operator, helpers, bystanders or any 
combination of these persons may result 
from one-handed operation. A chain saw 
is intended for two-handed use.
