4.  Wear safety glasses and hearing 

protection. Further protective 

equipment for head, hands, legs 

and feet is recommended. 

Adequate 

protective clothing will reduce personal 
injury by flying debris or accidental contact 
with the saw chain. 

5.  Do not operate a chain saw in a tree. 

Operation of a chain saw while up in a tree 
may result in personal injury.

6.  Always keep proper footing and 

operate the chain saw only when 

standing on fixed, secure and level 

surface. 

Slippery or unstable surfaces such 

as ladders may cause a loss of balance or 
control of the chain saw.

7.  When cutting a limb that is under 

tension be alert for spring back. 

When 

the tension in the wood fibres is released the 
spring loaded limb may strike the operator 
and/or throw the chain saw out of control.

8.  Use extreme caution when cutting 

brush and saplings. 

The slender material 

may catch the saw chain and be whipped 
toward you or pull you off balance.

9.  Carry the chain saw by the front 

handle with the chain saw switched 

off and away from your body. When 

transporting or storing the chain saw 

always fit the guide bar cover. 

Proper 

handling of the chain saw will reduce the 
likelihood of accidental contact with the 
moving saw chain.

10.Follow instructions for lubricating, 

chain tensioning and changing 

accessories. 

Improperly tensioned or 

lubricated chain may either break or increase 
the chance for kickback.

11.Keep handles dry, clean, and free from 

oil and grease. 

Greasy, oily handles are 

slippery causing loss of control.

12.Cut wood only. Do not use chain 

saw for purposes not intended. For 

example: do not use chain saw for 

cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood 

building materials. 

Use of the chain saw 

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 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 guide bar rapidly back 
towards the operator.
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 chain saw 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 operating procedures or conditions 
and can be avoided by taking proper 
precautions as given below:

-

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 chain saw.

-

Do not overreach and do not cut 

above shoulder height.

 This  helps 

prevent unintended tip contact and 
enables better control of the chain saw in 
unexpected situations.

-

Only use replacement bars 

and chains specified by the 

manufacturer.

 Incorrect replacement 

bars and chains may cause chain 
breakage and/or kickback.

-

Follow the manufacturer’s 

sharpening and maintenance 

instructions for the saw chain. 

Decreasing the depth gauge height can 
lead to increased kickback.
