I was wondering how a chainsaw could kick back into your head/face area. I have had kickbacks a few times, but it is always minor and the saw gets pushed directly back (handle grip shooting towards me) towards my leg and almost always I stop it before it gets there. The only way I could see it happening if there is another log on the other side that you catch the tip with. I never run into that situation though because I only do one piece at a time.
I guess if you saw from underneath and put a tremendous amount of upward pressure and don't relax it as you come to the end, I could see that also.
just curious because I read about a kickback to the face on the injuries section.
thanks
