Cut wood only. Do not use chainsaw for purposes not
u
intended. For example: do not use the chainsaw for
cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood building materi-
als. Use of the chainsaw for operations different than
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Causes and operator prevention of kickback
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar
touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches
the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse reac-
tion, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may
push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of
the chainsaw which could result in serious personal injury.
Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into your
chainsaw. As a chainsaw user, you should take several steps
to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and / or incorrect operat-
ing procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking
proper precautions as given below:
Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encir-
u
cling the chainsaw handles. With both hands on the
chainsaw, position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. Kickback forces can be control-
led by the operator, if proper precautions are taken. Do not
let go of the chainsaw.
Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder
u
height. This helps prevent unintended tip contact and
enables better control of the chainsaw in unexpected situ-
ations.
Only use replacement guide bars and chains specified
u
by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement guide bars
and chains may cause chain breakage and/ or kickback.
Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and mainte-
u
nance instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing the
depth gauge height can lead to increased kickback.
Striking metal, cement or any other hard material near the
u
wood, or buried in the wood can cause kickback.
A dull or loose chain can cause kickback.
u
Do not try to insert into a previous cut. As this could cause
u
kickback. Make a fresh cut every time.
Safety recommendations for the chainsaw
We strongly recommend that first time users obtain practi-
u
cal instruction in the use of the chainsaw and protective
equipment from an experienced user. Initial practice
should be completed sawing logs on a saw horse or
cradle.
We recommend that when carrying the chainsaw that you
u
remove the battery and make sure that the saw chain is
facing backwards.
