Kickback

35.Securing the extension cord.

Bend the extension cord about 40 cm from the plug end. Push that bend through the oblong opening, then loop the bend under the

cord retaining clips as shown. This will prevent the extension cord from detaching from the hedge trimmer plug.

With a basic understanding of kickback, you will reduce or eliminate the element of surprise that may contribute to an accident.

Kickback may occur when the moving saw chain at the nose of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut. In some cases, this may cause fast reverse action, kicking the unit up and back or down and back towards the operator. The operator can lose control of the device, and that could result in serous personal injury.

Keep a firm grip on the pruner handles at all time!
