WARNING: Kickback can occur
when the moving chain contacts an object at
the upper portion of the tip of the guide bar or
when the wood closes in and pinches the
saw chain in the cut. Contact at the upper
portion of the tip of the guide bar can cause
the chain to dig into the object, which stops
the chain for an instant. The result is a light-
ning fast, reverse reaction which kicks the
guide bar up and back toward the operator. If
the saw chain is pinched along the top of the
guide bar, the guide bar can be driven rapidly
reactions can cause loss of saw control
which can result in serious injury. Guard
against kickback
Rotational Kickback is the rapid upward
and backward motion of the chain saw that
can occur when the moving saw chain near
the upper portion of the tip of the guide bar
contacts an object such as a log or a branch.
Pinch-Kickback and Pull-In occur when the
chain is suddenly stopped by being pinched,
caught, or by contacting a foreign object in
