ANSI standards. When purchasing replace-
ment bar and chain, considerations should
be given to the lower CKA values. Lower
CKA values represent safer angles to the
user, higher values indicate more angle and
higher kick energies.Computedangles rep-
resented in the non-activated column indi-
cate total energy and angle associated with-
out activation of the chain brake during
kickback. Activated angle represents chain
stopping time relative to activation angle of
chain break and resulting kick angle of saw.
In all cases lower CKA values represent a
safer operating environment for the user.
The following guide bar and chain combina-
tions meet kickback requirements of CSA
Standards Z62.1, Z62.3, & ANSI B175.1
when used on saws listed in this manual.
Use of bar and chain combinations other
than those listed is not recommended and
may not meet the CKA requirements per
standard.
WARNING:
Computed kickback
angle (CKA) listed on your saw and listed in
the
CKA table below represents angle of
kickback your bar and chain combinations
will have when tested in accordance with
