GUIDE BAR

The factory-equipped guide bar has a small radius tip that offers a somewhat lower kickback potential.

LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN

The low kickback saw chain helps minimize the force of a kickback reaction by preventing the cutters from digging in too deeply at the kickback zone.

PRIMER BULB

The primer bulb pumps fuel from the fuel tank to the carburetor­.

SAFE-T-TIP®ANTI-KICKBACK NOSE GUARD

The SAFE-T-TIP®Anti-Kickback Nose Guard is an attachment provided on the end of the guide bar to prevent the chain on the end of the guide bar from contacting the wood.
