der height.

tensioned saw chain.

the chain running direction on the work-
piece.
With drawing in, the chain saw is jerkily
pulled to the workpiece.
Drawing in occurs if:
– The saw chain is jammed during sawing
with the lower edge of the guide bar or
if it hits an obstacle in the workpiece.
With a recoil the chain saw is jerkily pushed
towards the user.
A recoil occurs if:
– The saw chain is jammed during sawing
with the upper edge of the guide bar or
if it hits an obstacle in the workpiece.
DANGER

movement of the chain saw.

with both hands.
– Do not twist or cant the guide bar during
sawing.

chain.

ficiently lubricated.
