CHAIN BRAKE
Starting shall always be done with the chain brake activated. The chain brake is a device that automatically
stops the chain in case a backward movement occurs, causing the saw to jump. Normally, the brake is
automatically activated by the inertia force.
It is also manually tightened by pushing the brake lever down and forward.
When the brake is running, a yellow sign comes out from the base of the brake lever.
To release the brake, pull the brake lever up until it clicks into place.
When the brake is in operation, release the trigger to slow down the engine speed. Continuous use when
the brake is running causes the clutch to heat up and can cause problems.
When checking the machine before using it, check the operating condition of the brake by performing the
following operations:
Start the engine and grasp the handle firmly with both hands.
While using the trigger to keep the chain in operation, push the brake lever down with the
back of the left hand.
When the brake is running and the chain is stopped, remove the hand from the throttle.
Loosen the brake.
RELEASE OF THE CHAIN BRAKE
To use the chain saw again, the chain brake must be released. This must be done machine off and cooled.
Pull the shield until it returns to its original position.
