Kick Guard™
An ECHO Chainsaw Kick Guard™ (2894901 and 2893202) is designed to protect against rotational kickback by preventing the saw's tip from making contact with logs and branches. By installing a kick guard on the bar, it allows for easier access to tight cutting environments where there may be a lot of obstructions that may otherwise cause a lot of damage to a bare nosed bar.
A tip guard helps to prevent accidental dulling of the chain by keeping the nose clear of abrasive objects, in addition to protecting the nose from accidental contact with the ground or other obstructions.
