Operating notes
WARNING!
Before each use, check that the chain brake is working properly. Otherwise, do not use the chainsaw
and have it repaired by a FUXTEC technician.
The chainsaw has a chain brake as a protective equipment, which stops the chain in a fraction of a
second in the event of a kickback. In the event of a kickback, the chain brake is automatically
activated by contact of the hand guard with the left hand. Therefore, always hold the chainsaw with
both hands.
Manual activation and release of the chain brake
Tilt the hand guard in the direction of the saw-bar tip (see following figure).
To release the chain brake, pull the hand guard towards the handle (see following figure).
