Low Kickback Saw Chain
The ramp-shaped depth gauges ahead of each cutter can minimize the force of a
kickback reaction by preventing the cutters from digging in too deeply at the kickback
zone. Only use a replacement chain that is equivalent to the original chain or has been
certied as a low kickback chain per ANSI B175.1. A low kickback tooth saw chain is a
chain that has met the kickback performance requirements of ANSI B175.1 (American
National Standard for Power Tools-Gasoline-Powered Chain Saws-Safety Requirements)
when tested on the representative sample of chain saws below 3.8 c.i.d. specied in
ANSI B175.1.
The bumper drive link (Fig. 2) also helps
2
deliver low-kickback performance.
CAUTION:
As saw chains are
sharpened during their useful life, they
lose some of the low kickback qualities
and extra caution should be used.

GUIDE BAR
This saw comes equipped with a guide
bar that has a small radius nose. Small radius noses generally have less potential for
kickback. When replacing the guide bar, be sure to order the bar listed in this manual.
