Pinch-Kickback can occur when the saw
chain suddenly stops during the cut. The
wood closes in and pinches the moving saw
chain along the top of the guide bar. The
sudden stop of the chain reverses the chain
force and causes the product to move in the
opposite direction of the turn of the chain.
The product moves rearward in the direction
of the operator.
•
Pull-In can occur when the saw chain
suddenly stops when the moving chain
touches an object in the wood along the
bottom of the guide bar. The sudden stop
pulls the product forward and away from the
operator, which can easily cause the loss of
control of the product by the operator.
