USING THE PRODUCT

brake lever/hand guard toward the bar while the chain is rotating rapidly. Be sure to maintain both hands on the saw
handles at all times.
• Reset the chain brake back into the Run position by grasping the top of the chain brake lever / hand guard and pulling
toward the front handle until you hear a click.
