The motor cannot be turned on if the
chain brake has engaged. Do not
employ the chain brake in order to
start the chainsaw or to switch it off.

surface. It must not contact any objects.
2. Ensure that the chain brake has been
released, that is, that the chain brake
lever (6) is pulled up against the front
grip (5).
3. Hold the chainsaw fi rmly with both
hands, with the right hand on the rear
handle (
1) and the left hand on the
front handle (
5). Thumb and fi nger
must close securely over the handles.

6. Once the chain brake is working prop-
erly, release the on/off switch (2) and
the chain brake.
If the chain brake does not
function correctly, you must
not use the chainsaw. A slack
saw chain leads to danger of
injury. Return the chainsaw to
our Service-Center for repair.
