Some tips I have are:
1. Keep your blade sharp, since a dull blade may kick back.
2.I have found that if I lock my right elbow, which holds the handle of the
chain saw, a kick back will not come near me, but will tend to go up.
3. Keep any helpers or other on lookers at least 10 feet away
How fast is the chain moving when a saw is idling?

My saw moves very little or not alt all. It depends on how tight the chain is.
Chain saws use a centrifusal cluch to engage the chain.

The chain should not be moving when the engine is idling. Do not try to
touch the bar or chain when the saw is at idle. There is much more to learn
than just how to operate the saw. I did plenty of logging in my college
days. The first thing to remember is not to be afraid of the saw. You

Claudia, I would be happy to talk with you on the phone about your situation
and I will call you and pay for the call. I will do it on skype. I am not
hitting on you or flirting, I am very happily married to a wonderful Lady who
happens to be my best friend also. If you are interested e mail
Hi,
Other than the things mentioned, I would also suggest that you run a garden
hose over the outside unit. Actually, if you can get it under, spraying up
will free the fins of all the pollen and other outside stuff. This is how
you clean the outsideunit.

The only time I got hurt with the chain saw is tripping of a log that I had
cut. I kept the saw away from me wwhen I fell.

Thanks everyone for all the tips. I don't know if or when I'll have the chance
to use a saw, but this old electric bugger I got for a dollar is probably not
worth using. It has no chain break and well hey, I got it thinking I might want
to use it for a job, but I'm not sure it really works all
Of course I didn't mean to send either of those messages to the list, ignore
my ignorance, Phil.

If the saw is correctly set up the chain should not be moving at all when the
motor is idling. Don't count on it though.
If I was Han Solo I'd probably pet my wookie

Thanks but I don't know what you're talking about. I figured those messages
weren't meant for the list if that's what you mean.

Not if it works. You would add freon if it seems to run forever and not cool,
or believe it or not, if the unit freezes up and stops running. Dirty filters
can also cause a bunch of trouble so that's the easy fix.
Adding freon is not something just anyone can do. You have to know the type
The only time I got hurt, someone else was running the saw. And he could see.

The idle on the engine should be set to a quarter to a half turn slower once
the chain stops moving. If you have to touch the chain to see if it's moving,
use a small piece of wood. If it's moving fast enough to hurt you, you will be
able to hear it.
