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.
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:
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.

Operating chain saws in temperatures of 0
– 5
°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.

freeze mode
By pull out and overturn (a) to turn to (b) mode.
This product has accordingly been designed with a ventilation hatch on the
right side of the surface of the cylinder cover to allow warm air to be
supplied to the engine and to thereby prevent icing from occurring.
Under normal circumstances the product should be used in the normal
operating mode, i.e., in the mode which it is set at the time of shipment.
However
when the possibility exists that icing may occur, the unit should be
set to operate in the anti
-
freeze mode before use.
