SAFETY FEATURES
2.LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN helps significantly reduce kickback, or the intensity of kickback, due to specially designed depth gauges and guard links.
3.CHAIN SAW ADJUSTMENT SCREW It is normal for a new chain saw chain to stretch after the first 30 min- utes of use. Check the tension of the chain regularly to ensure the best performance, see SAW CHAIN ADJUSTMENT under MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR INSTRUCTIONS.
5.CHAIN BRAKE® LEVER / HAND GUARD protects the operator’s left hand in the event it slips off the front handle while saw is running.
CHAIN 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
10.STOP SWITCH immediately stops the engine when pushed up. Stop switch must be pushed down to start or restart engine.
11.SAFETY TRIGGER prevents accidental acceleration of the engine. Throttle trigger (19) cannot be squeezed unless the safety trigger is depressed.
17.RED CHOKE LEVER aids in starting the engine.
19.THROTTLE TRIGGER controls engine speed.
20.CHAIN CATCHER reduces the danger of injury in the event saw chain breaks or derails during oper ation. The chain catcher is designed to intercept a whipping chain.
