KICKBACK SAFETY PRECAU-
TIONS FOR CHAIN SAW USERS
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. Enter of these rea-
ction may cause you to lose
control of the saw, Which could
result in serious personal
injury.

safety devices built into your
saw. As a chain saw user you
should take several steps to
keep cutting jobs free from
accident or injury.

with both hands 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 hand- les. A firm
grip will help you reduce
kickback and maintain control of
the saw.
3.
Make certain that the area in
which you are cutting is free
from obstructions. Do not let the
nose of the guide bar contact a
log, branch, or any other
obstruction, which could be hit
while you are operating the saw.
