Contact at the upper portion of the tip of the guide bar can cause the chain to dig into the object and stop the chain for an instant.
  • Page 7 SAFETY INFORMATION ‡ Push and Pull - This reaction force is always opposite to the direction the chain is moving where wood contact is made. Thus, the operator must be ready to control the PULL when cutting on the bottom edge of the bar, and PUSH when cutting along the top edge. (See Figure 3) PULL PUSH...
