kickback and how to avoid it before using
the product.
Kickback is the sudden upward motion that can occur if
the blade is pinched or stalled in the kickback zone.
Most kickbacks are small and pose little danger.
However a kickback can also be very violent and throw
the power cutter up and back towards the user in a
rotating motion causing serious or even fatal injury.
Reactive force
A reactive force is always present when cutting. The
force pulls the product in the opposite direction to the
blade rotation. Most of the time this force is insignificant.
