Causes and prevention of kick-
back
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 reaction, kicking the guide bar up and
back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the
guide bar may push the bar rapidly back towards
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose
control of the saw which could result in serious
personal injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the
safety devices built into your saw. As a chainsaw
user, you should take several steps to keep your
cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of chain saw misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below:
a) Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers
encircling the chain saw handles, with both
hands on the saw and position your body
and arm to allow you to resist kickback
forces. Kickback forces can be controlled by
the operator if proper precautions are taken.
Do not let go of the chainsaw.
b) Do not overreach and do not cut above
shoulder height. This helps prevent uninten-
ded contact with the nose of the guide bar
and enables better control of the chainsaw in
c) Only use replacement bars and chains speci-
fied by the manufacturer. Incorrect replace-
ment bars and chains may cause chain
breakage and/or kickback.
d) Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
The kickback tendency is increased if the
depth gauges are too low.
