AMERICAN STANDARD SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR CHAIN SAW USERS
(ANSI B175.1-2012 Annex C)
KICKBACK SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
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.
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.
