Automatic switch off functionality

The machine is equipped with an automatic shutdown feature that deactivates the machine if not used. The machine will deactivate after 2 minutes.

Chain brake and front hand guard

Your chain saw is equipped with a chain brake that is designed to stop the chain if you get a kickback.The chain brake reduces the risk of accidents, but only you can prevent them.

Take care when using your saw and make sure the kickback zone of the bar never touches any object.

•The chain brake (A) can either be activated manually (by your left hand) or automatically by the inertia release mechanism.

A

•The brake is applied when the front hand guard (B) is pushed forwards.

B

•This movement activates a spring-loaded mechanism that stops the drive sprocket.

•The front hand guard is not designed solely to activate the chain brake. Another important feature is that it reduces the risk of your left hand hitting the chain if you lose grip of the front handle.

•Use the chain brake as a ”parking brake” when starting and when moving over short distances, to reduce the risk of moving chain accidentally hitting your leg or anyone or anything close by.

•To release the chain brake pull the front hand guard backwards, towards the front handle.

•Kickback can be very sudden and violent. Most kickbacks are minor and do not always activate the chain brake. If this happens you should hold the chain saw firmly and not let go.
