Brush off any sawdust, resin and dirt from the chain brake and clutch drum. Dirt and wear can impair operation of the brake.

Regularly check that the brake band is at least 0.6

mmthick at its thinnest point.

2 Checking the front hand guard

A Make sure the

FRONT HAND GUARD is not damaged and that there are no visible defects such as cracks.

B Move the front hand guard forwards and back to make sure it runs freely and that it is securely anchored to the clutch cover.

3 Checking the inertia brake release

Hold the chain saw over a stump or other firm object. Let go of the front handle so that the bar falls onto the stump.

When the bar hits the stump the brake should be applied.

4 Checking the brake trigger

Start the chain saw and place it on firm ground. Make sure the chain does not touch the ground or any other object. See instructions under the heading Start and stop.

Grasp the saw firmly, wrapping your fingers and thumbs around the handles.

Apply full throttle and activate the chain brake by tilting your wrist forward onto the front hand guard. Do not let go of the front handle.

The chain should stop immediately.
