sure the chain brake is disengaged by pulling the front
hand guard/chain brake back.
CAUTION
Failure to fully release the throttle when chain brake lever
is in the brake position will result in serious damage to
the product. Never squeeze and hold the throttle trigger
while the chain brake is in the brake position.

To stop the engine, fully press the stop switch. Do not put
the product on the ground when the chain is still moving.
For additional safety, set the chain brake when the product
is not in use.
In the event that the ignition switch will not stop the product,
pull the choke lever out to the fully extended position (full-
choke) and engage the chain brake to stop the engine. If
the ignition switch will not stop the product when
"STOP"

fully pressed, have the ignition switch repaired before using
the product again to prevent unsafe conditions or serious
injury.
NOTE:
When you are finished using the product, always
relieve tank pressure by loosening, then retightening, the
chain lubricant and fuel caps. Allow the engine to cool
down before storing.
HOLDING THE PRODUCT
See page 19.
Always hold the product with your right hand on the rear
handle and your left hand on the front handle. Grip both
handles with the thumbs and fingers encircling the handles.
Ensure that your left hand is holding the front handle so that
your thumb is underneath.
CHECKING AND OPERATING THE CHAIN BRAKE
1. Engage the chain brake by rotating your left hand
around the front handle. Allow the back of your hand to
push the chain brake lever/hand guard toward the bar
while the chain is rotating rapidly. The chain should stop
rotating immediately. Be sure to maintain both hands on
the handles of the product at all times.
2. Reset the chain brake back into the run position by
grasping the top of the chain brake lever/hand guard
and pulling toward the front handle until you hear a
click.
WARNING
If the chain brake does not stop the chain immediately, or
if the chain brake will not stay in the run position without
assistance, have the product serviced by an authorised
service centre only prior to use.
