KICKBACK may occur when the NOSE or TIP of the guide
bar touches an object,  or when wood closes in  and pinch-
es the saw chain in the  cut.
WARNING
Tip  contact  in  some   cases  may  cause  a  lightning-fast
reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and  back toward
the operator.
PINCHING the saw chain along  the BOTTOM of the guide
bar may PULL the saw forward, away  from the operator.
PINCHING the  saw chain along the  TOP of the guide  bar
may PUSH the guide bar rapidly back toward  the operator.
Any of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the
saw, which could result in serious  personal injury.
2-2.
DANGER! BEWARE OF KICKBACK!
Kickback can lead to dangerous loss of control of the chain
saw and result in serious or fatal injury to  the saw operator
or to  anyone standing  close by.  Always be  alert because
rotational kickback and pinch kickback are major chain saw
operational dangers  and the  leading cause  of most  acci-
dents.
BEWARE OF:
