SAFETY FEATURES
Numbers preceding the descriptions correspond with the numbers above to help you locate the safety feature.
2LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN helps significantly reduce kickback, or the intensity of kickback, due to specially designed depth gauges and guard links.
4SPARK ARRESTER SCREEN retains carbon and other flammable particles over 0.023 inches (0.6mm) in size from engine exhaust flow. Compliance with local, state and federal laws and/or regulations governing the use of a spark arrester screen is the user’s responsibility. See Safety Precautions for additional information.
5CHAIN BRAKE® LEVER / HAND GUARD protects the operator’s left hand in the event it slips off the front handle while saw is running.
5CHAIN BRAKE® is a safety feature designed to reduce the possibility of injury due to kickback by stopping a moving saw chain in milliseconds. It is activated by the CHAIN BRAKE® lever.
10STOP SWITCH immediately stops the engine when tripped. Stop switch must be pushed to ON position to start or restart engine.
11SAFETY LATCH prevents accidental acceleration of the engine. Throttle trigger (19) cannot be squeezed unless the safety latch is depressed.
