▪
Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear handle, and
the left hand on the front handle, when the engine is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs
and fingers encircling the chain saw handles. A firm grip will help you reduce kickback and
maintain control of the saw. Don't let go.
▪
Make sure that the area in which you are cutting is free from obstructions. Do not let the
nose of the guide bar contact a log, branch, or any other obstruction which could be hit
while you are operating the saw.
▪
Cut at high engine speeds.
▪
Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
▪
Follow manufacturer's sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
▪
Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the equivalent.
NOTE: Low-kickback saw chain is chain that has met the kickback
performance.
WARNING: 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. Rotational kickback and pinch-kickback
are major chain saw operational dangers and the leading cause of most
accidents.
Beware of:
▪
Rotational kickback (Fig. 2a)
A = kickback path
B = kickback reaction zone
▪
The push (pinch kickback) and pull reactions a = pull (Fig. 2b)
B = solid objects
C = push
When the chain saw fails to dig in during a cut, the guide bar can begin hopping or
dangerously skidding along the surface of the log or branch, possibly resulting in the loss of
control of the chain saw. To prevent or reduce skating, hold the chain saw with two hands and
make sure the saw chain establishes a groove for cutting.
