dure listed above. Ensure the ON/STOP
switch is in the ON position.
Starting could require many pulls depending on
how badly unit is flooded. If engine still fails to

CHAIN BRAKE
WAR NIN G: If the brake band is worn
too thin it may break when the chain brake is
triggered. With a broken brake band, the chain
brake will not stop the chain, The chain brake
should be replaced by an authorized service
dealer if any part is worn to less than 0,020"
(0.5 mm) thick, Repairs on a chain brake
should be made by an authorized service deaf
er. Take your unit to the place of purchase if
purchased from a servicing dealer, or to the
nearest authorized master service dealer.
• This saw is equipped with a chain brake.
The brake is designed to stop the chain if
kickback occurs.
• The inertia-activated chain brake is
activated if the front hand guard is pushed
forward, either manually (by hand) or
automatically (by sudden movement).
• If the brake is already activated, it is
disengaged by pulling the front hand guard
back toward the front handle as far as
possible.
• When cutting with the sew, the chain brake
must be disengaged.

CAUTION: The chain brake must be
checked several times daily, The engine must
be running when performing this procedure.

be placed on the ground with the engine run-
ning.
Place the saw on firm ground. Grip the rear
handle with your right hand end the front han-
dle with your left hand. Apply full throttle by

When performing the
following procedure, the engine must be
turned off.
G rip the rear handle with your right hand end
the front handle with your left hand, Hold the
chain saw approximately 14" (35 cm) above
a stump or other wooden surface, Release
your grip on the front handte and use the
weight of the saw to let the top of the guide
bar fail forward and contact the stump.
When the tip of the bar hits the stump, the
brake should activate.
IMPORTANT POINTS
• Check chain tension before first use end
after 1 minute of operation. See CHAIN
TENSION in the ASSEMBLY section.
• Cut wood only. Do not cut metal, plastics,
masonry, non-wood building materials, etc.
• Stop the saw if the chain strikes a foreign
object. Inspect the saw and repair or re-
place parts as necessary.
• Keep the chain out of dirt and sand. Even a
small amount of dirt will quickly dull a chain
and thus increase the possibility of kickback.
• Practice cutting e few smell logs using the
following techniques to get the "feel" of us-
ing your saw before you begin a major
sawing operation.
• Squeeze the throttle trigger and allow
the engine to reach full speed before
cutting.
• Begin cutting with the saw frame
against the log.
• Keep the engine at full speed the entire
time you are cutting.
• Allowthechaintocutforyou. Exertonly
light downward pressure. If you force
the cut, damage to the bar. chain, or en-
gine can result.
