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 everse reaction kicking the guide bar up and back
towards the operator Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide

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 chain saw user, you should take several
steps to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Follow the manufacturers sharpening and maintenance instructions for
