Oregon® .404”-pitch Super Guard® chains (58J, 58L, 59J, and 59L) may be capable of kickback that could result in

serious injury to the saw operator or bystanders.

Although these chains have features designed to reduce kickback energy, they are NOT low-kickback chains. Do not use Oregon® 58J, 58L, 59J, or 59L unless you have experience and specialized training for dealing with kickback. Saw chain with lower kickback potential is available.
