AUTOMATIC CHAIN BRAKE

Kickback produced from the tip of the guide bar will 

trip the automatic chain brake. To make sure that 

the automatic chain brake operates properly, follow 

these steps: 
1. 

Stop the engine.

  

2. Hold the saw with the guide bar approximately 

55 cm (22 in.) above a wooden surface. Right 

hand should hold the rear handle, and left hand 

should hold the front handle.  

3. Release the front handle and drop the end of the 

guide bar against the wooden surface.  

4. The impact should lock the chain brake.

IMPORTANT

When checking the operation of the automatic 

chain brake, use a soft surface substance like 

wood to provide the impact so the chain is not 

damaged.

Rear handle

 should be gripped lightly with the 

right hand.

  

1. Do not operate a chain saw with one hand! Serious 

injury to the operator, helpers, bystanders, or any 
combination of these persons may result from one-
handed operation. A chain saw is intended for two-
handed use.

  2. Do not operate a chain saw when you are fatigued.

  3. Use safety footwear, snug-fitting clothing and 

protective gloves. Wear eye, hearing, and head 
protection devices.

  4. Use caution when handling fuel. Move the chain saw 

at least 3 m  (10 feet) from the fueling point before 
starting the engine.

  5. Do not allow other persons to be near the chain saw 

when starting or cutting with the chain saw. Keep 
bystanders and animals out of the work area.

Other Safety Precautions

  6. Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area, 

secure footing, and a planned retreat path from the 
falling tree.

  7. Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain 

when the engine is running.

  8. Before you start the engine, make sure that the saw 

chain is not contacting anything.

  9. Carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the 

guide bar and saw chain to the rear, and the muffler 

away from your body. When carrying a chain saw 
with the engine running, push the front hand guard 
forward to engage the chain brake.

 10. Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, 

improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely 
assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving 
when the throttle control trigger is released.

 11. Shut off the engine before setting the chain saw 

down.
