into your saw. As a chain saw user you should take several steps to keep cutting jobs free from accident or injury.

(1)With a basic understanding of kickback you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.

(2)Keep a good 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.

(3)Make certain 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.

(4)Cut at high engine speeds.

(5)Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.

(6)Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain.

(7)Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the equivalent.
