KICKBACK SAFETY RECAUTIONS FOR CHAIN SAW USERS
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 on the 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.
(1) With a basic understanding of kick-back you can reduce or eliminate the element
of surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.
(2) Keep a good 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.
(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.
(4) Cut at high engine speeds.
(5) Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
(6) Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw
chain.
(7) Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the
equivalent.
