Kickback and Safety Precautions
Beware of kickback!
Kickback can occur whenever the tip of the guide bar touches an object
while the saw is operating. Kickback may force the bar up and back towards
the operator with speed!
Beware of pinching!
Pinching the saw along the tip of the guide bar may force the bar back rapidly
toward the operator. Pinching can occur whenever wood closes in around the
moving chain.
Both kickback and pinching may cause you to lose control of the chain saw, which could result in serious
personal injury.
1. Understand kickback and pinching!
2. Keep a rm grip on the chain saw with both hands whenever the engine is running.
A rm grip will help you reduce the aects of kickback and pinching as well as maintain control of
the machine.
3. Cut at high engine speeds.
4. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for sharpening and maintaining the chain.
5. Use only genuine spare parts.
