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
sudden 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.

a) With a basic understanding of kickback,
you can reduce or eliminate the
element of surprise. Sudden surprise
contributes to accidents;
b) 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 the saw. Don't let go;
c) Make sure 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 that could be hit while you
are operating the saw;
d) Cut at high engine speeds;
e) Do not overreach or cut above shoulder
height;
f) Follow the manufacturer's sharpening
and maintenance instructions for the
saw chain;
g) Only use original equipment
replacement bars and chains specified
by the manufacturer or the equivalent.
Caution: The user not to use
replacement saw chain unless it has
been designed to meet the ANSI
B175.1- (current revision of standard)
kickback performance requirements on
that specific powerhead, or has been
designated as low-kickback saw chain
in accordance with ANSI B 175.1-
(current revision of standard);
Low-kickback saw chain is chain that
has met the kickback performance
requirements of ANSI B 175.1 - (current
revision of standard) (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. specified in ANSI B
175.1- (current revision of standard)
Beware of kickback! Kickback can lead to
dangerous loss of control of the product
