The Computed Kickback Angle is a calculated value from energies measured on a test bench.lt is not the angle of the guide bar moved upward in case of a

KICKBACK.

WARNINGI

Minors should never be allowed to use a chain saw.

Bystanders,especiallychildrenand animalsshould not be allowed in the area where a chain saw is in use (fig. 1).

Never let the saw run unattended.

WARNING !

Prolongeduseof chainsaws exposingtheoperator to vibrations may produce Whitefinger disease (Raynaud's phenomenon). This phenomenon reduces the hand's ability to feel and regulate temperature, produces numbness and burning sensations and may cause nerve and circulation damage and tissue necrosis.

All MAKITA saws are therefore provided with an antivibration system which is essential for those using chain saws on a regular or sustained basis. Antivibrationsystems do not guaranteethat you will not sustain Whitefinger disesase, however, they reduce this danger considerably. Nevertheless, continual and regular users should observe their hands and fingers and in case of any abnormal symptoms, seek medical advice immediately.
