Kickback causes and
how to avoid them with
pruners
Caution - kickbacks! Be aware that
you may experience kickback while
working with the device. There is
a risk of injury. Kickbacks can be
avoided through taking the appro-
priate care and using the correct
sawing technique.

• Kickbacks may occur if the tip of the
guide rail touches an object, or if the
wood bends and the saw chain gets
caught in the cut (see Fig. b).
• Under some circumstances, contact with
tip of the rails can lead to an unexpected
backwards reaction movement during
which the guide rails move upwards and
strike the operator (see Fig. a).
• If the saw chain becomes stuck along
the top edge of the guide rail, the rail
can kick back heavily towards to the
operator.
• Each of these reactions can lead to
you losing control of the saw and po-
tentially being seriously injured. Do not
rely exclusively on the safety devices
built into the chainsaw. As user of the
chainsaw, you should undertake vari-
ous measures to enable accident- and
injury-free working.

A kickback is caused by wrongly or incor-
rectly operating the power tool. It can be
avoided by suitable cautionary measures,
such as described below:
• Hold the saw firmly with both
hands with thumbs and fingers
surrounding the chainsaw han-
dles. Place your body and arms
in a position where you can
withstand the kickback forces.
The operator will be capable of with-
standing the kickback forces if suitable
measures are undertaken. Never let go
of the chainsaw.
• Avoid an abnormal body pos-
ture. This enables better control over
the chainsaw in unforeseen situations.
• Always use the replacement
rails and saw chains specified
by the manufacturer. Incorrect
replacement rails and saw chains can
cause the chain to break apart and/or
may lead to kickback.
• Comply with the manufacturer's
instructions for sharpening and
maintaining the saw chain. Depth
gauges placed too low increase the
potential for kickbacks.
• Do not saw with the tip of the
blade bar (see Fig. b). There is a
risk of kickback.
• Ensure there are no objects on
the ground which could cause
you to stumble.

• Inspect the machine daily before each
use and after dropping or other impacts
to check for significant damage or de-
