Cutting with the Chain Saw
WARNING
Operating a chain saw improperly can cause
serious person injury or death.
Read and follow all operating instructions
carefully to help avoid possible personal
injury.
WARNING
Kickback can cause serious or fatal injury to
you.
Always ensure that the chain brake system
is working properly before you operate the
chain saw.
Avoid touching objects to be cut with the tip
of the chain saw.
There are 2 types of kickback:
•
A fast upward motion of the chain saw that results
when the chain at the nose or top of the bar
contacts an object
•
A fast backward motion of the chain saw that
results when the chain at the nose or top of the bar
is pinched by the object being cut
Figure 10 shows the area of the bar to avoid
contacting an object to prevent kickback.

Note:
Keeping your left arm straight with your
elbow locked helps reduce kickback.
2. Stand to the left side of the chain saw and not
in line with the chain, and position yourself for
balanced, stable footing while sawing.
3. Stand on solid, even ground in front of the wood
to be cut.
4. While cutting, have the wood near the chain saw
head, at the exposed near end of the guide bar.
You can use the bucking teeth
pressure but it works best with a sharp-toothed
chain.
1. Bucking teeth
5. Press the chain saw lightly against the wood,
allowing the weight of the chain saw to drive the
cutting.
6. Keep steady pressure on the chain saw
throughout the cut, and release pressure only
near the end of the cut.
