requirements in Canadian Standards Association Z62.1-15 (Chain Saws) and Z62.3-11 (R2016) (Chain saw kickback)
when equipped with the below listed saw chain and guide bar combination(s).
Note: Other chain saw models may not meet the kickback requirements when equipped with the listed guide bar and
saw chain combinations.
Low kickback saw chain
The saw chain(s) in the list classified as low kickback saw chains are evaluated and listed as a Low Kickback Saw Chain

Kickback and guide bar nose radius
For sprocket nose bars the nose radius is defined by the number of teeth (e.g. 10T). For solid bars the nose radius is
defined by the size of the nose radius. For a given guide bar length, you may use a guide bar with smaller nose radius
than listed.
