When the saw chain is caught in the cut, do
not attempt to pull it out by force, but use a
wedge or a lever to open the way.
Guardagainst kickback
This saw is equipped with a chain brake that
will stop the chain in the event of kickback
if operating properly. You must check the chain
brake operation before each usage by
running the saw at full throttle for 1-2 seconds
and pushing the front hand guard
forward.
The chain should stop immediately with the
engine at full speed, if the chain is slow to
stop or does not stop, replace the brake band
and clutch drum before use.
It is extremely important that the chain brake
be checked for proper operation before
each use and that the chain be sharp in
order to maintain the kickback safety level
of this saw. Removal of the safety devices,
inadequate maintenance, or incorrect
replacement of the bar or chain may increase
the risk of serious personal injury due to
kickback.
