During felling your left hand grasps the front handle in 
such a way that it cannot activate the front hand guard. 
In this position the chain brake can only be activated by 
the inertia action of the counterweight. 

 

Throttle lock 

The throttle lock is designed to prevent accidental 
operation of the throttle control. When you press the 
lock (A) (i.e. when you grasp the handle) it releases the 
throttle trigger (B).   

When you release the handle the throttle trigger and the 
throttle lock both move back to their original positions. 
This movement is controlled by two independent return 
springs.  

This arrangement means that the throttle control is 
automatically locked at the idle setting when you 
release the handle.

Chain catcher 

The chain catcher is designed to catch the chain if it 
snaps or jumps off. This should not happen if the chain 
is properly tensioned and if the bar and chain are 
properly serviced and maintained. 

 

Right hand guard 

Apart from protecting your hand if the chain jumps or 
snaps, the right hand guard stops branches and twigs 
from interfering with your grip on the rear handle. 

 

Vibration damping system 

Your chain saw is equipped with a vibration damping 
system that is designed to minimize vibrations and 
make operation more comfortable and easier to work 
with this machine. 

 

When you use a chain saw vibrations are generated by 
the uneven contact between the chain and the wood 
you are cutting. 

 

Cutting hardwoods (most broadleaf trees) creates more 
vibration than cutting softwoods (most conifers). Cutting
