Guard Against Kickback
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 injury to user.
The following precautions should be followed to minimize kickback:
• Grip Pole Saw firmly. Hold the saw firmly with both hands when
the unit is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers
encircling the saw handle and pole.
• Do not over reach.
• Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
• Don't let the nose of the guide bar contact a log, branch, ground
or other obstruction.
• Do not extend Pole Saw handle above shoulder height.
