when the spinning blade contacts anything it cannot
cut. This contact may cause the blade to stop for an
instant, and suddenly "thrust" the unit away from the
object that was hit. This reaction can be violent enough
to cause the operator to lose control of the unit. Blade
thrust may occur without warning if the blade snags,
stalls, or binds. This is more likely to occur in areas
