There are many safety factors to keep in mind when operating a chainsaw. Many tragic accidents occur because of mishandling chainsaws. The major cause of injury with a chainsaw is from hitting a harder substance inside of the material you are cutting. This is called kickback and causes the chain to move very violently away from the harder substance. The torque involved in cutting with a chainsaw makes kickback impossible to completely control. To prevent the serious injuries possible with your Remington chainsaw, there are a few simple techniques to follow.

First and most important is to know the material you are cutting well. Cutting wood from an old building should never be done with your Remington chainsaw. In older pieces of wood used in construction, there are often hidden pieces of metal where a nail head has broken off making removal not cost or time effective. By avoiding using a chainsaw on old wood used in construction, you will reduce the chance of kickback happening.

Because even in a tree that appears to have no metal in it can have such hidden pieces of metal in them, it is important to make the kickback that will eventually occur have little damaging effect. One way to help this to happen is by always using two hands to control your Remington chainsaw. Keeping the elbow locked in a straight position on the arm not controlling the trigger will help to maintain a bit of control when you experience a kickback. Another important consideration is to cut with the chainsaw in a manner where the chain is not in direct line with your upper body. Many of the fatal injuries occur when the chainsaw kickbacks into the head or neck. Unlike some cutting instruments, adding your body weight will not make your cut go faster with a chainsaw, so keep your Remington chainsaw out of direct line with your body and let the chain do the work of cutting for you.
