pruning saw for cutting metal, plastic, masonry
or non-wood building materials. Use of the
pruning saw for operations different than intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
l) This pruning saw is not intended for tree felling.
Use of the pruning saw for operations different
than intended could result in serious injury to the
operator or bystanders.

Operation of a pruning saw in a tree without
proper training could increase the risk of
serious personal injury.

2) Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide
bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and
pinches the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse
reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the
operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide
bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the
operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control
of the saw which could result in serious personal injury.
Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into
your saw. As a pruning saw user, you should take several
steps to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or
injury.
Kickback is the result of pruning saw misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:
a) Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers
encircling the pruning saw handles, with both
hands on the saw and position your body and
arm to allow you to resist kickback forces.
Kickback forces can be controlled by the operator,
if proper precautions are taken. Do not let go of the
pruning saw.
b) Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder
height. This helps prevent unintended tip contact
and enables better control of the pruning saw in

unexpected situations.
c) Only use replacement bars and chains specified
by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement guide
bars and saw chains may cause chain breakage and/
or kickback.
d) Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to
increased kickback.
