2.2 Segurança contra recuo
Kickback is a sudden upward and backward motion of the guide bar that can occur when the tip of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut. The Scheppach PCS38 features an anti-kickback chain brake that stops the chain within milliseconds in case of kickback.
