Chain brake

The chain brake is a device which stops the
chain instantaneously if the chain saw recoils
due to kickback.
(1)Front handle (2) Release
(3) Brake (4) Front handle guard
Normally, the brake is activated automatically
by inertial force. It can also be activated
manually by pushing the brake lever (Front
handle guard) down toward the front.
When the brake operates, a white cone pops
up from the base of the brake lever.
To release brake, pull up the front handle
guard toward the front handle till "click" sound
is heard.
WARNING
When the brake operates, release the throttle
trigger to slow down the engine speed.
Continuous operation with the brake engaged
will generate heat from the clutch and
may cause trouble.
Be sure to confirm brake operation on the daily
inspection.
How to confirm:
40
1) Turn off the engine.
2) Holding the chain saw horizontally, release
your hand from the front handle, hit the tip of
the guide bar to a stump or a piece of wood,
and confirm brake operation.
Operating level varies by bar size.
In case the brake is not effective, ask our
dealer inspection and repairing.
Anti‐freezing window
Operating chain saws in temperatures of ‐25°C
– 0°C at times of high humidity may result
in ice forming within the carburetor, and this
in turn may cause the output power of the
engine to be reduced or for the engine to fail to
operate smoothly.
This product has accordingly been designed
with an anti‐freezing window on the cylinder
shield to allow warm air to be supplied to the
carburettor chamber and to thereby prevent
icing from occurring.
Under normal circumstances the anti‐
freezing window should be set in the close
mode. In this case, the "SUN" marking is face
outside.
However when the possibility exists that
icing may occur, the anti‐freezing window
should be set in the open mode before use. In
this case, the "SNOW" marking is face outside.
Continuing to use the product in the anti‐
freezing mode even when temperatures have
risen and returned to normal, may result in the
engine failing to start properly or in the engine
failing to operate at its normal speed, and for
this reason you should always be sure to set
the anti‐freezing window to the close mode if
there is no danger of icing occurring.
