chance ofyour left hand contacting
the chain ifyour hand slips off the
front handlebar.
• Positionoffront and rear handlebars:
designed with distance between hen-
dies and "in-line"with each other, The
spread end "in-line"position of the
hands provided by this design work
together to give balance end resis-
tance in controllingthe pivot ofthe
saw back toward the operator if kick-
back occurs.
• Reduced-Kickback Guide Bar: de-
signed with a small radius tip which
reduces the size ofthe kickback dan-
ger zone. This type bar has been
demonstrated to significantly reduce
the number and seriousness of kick-
becks when tested in accordance
with ANSI B175.1.
