Kickback Safety Devices On This
Chain Saw
Chain Brake
The chain saw comes equipped with a chain
brake, which stops both the motor and the
motion of the chain when kickback occurs.
The chain brake can be activated by the
forward motion of the chain kickback brake
handle as the saw rotates backward during
kickback; it can also be activated by the
inertial forces generated during rapid
pushback.
Warning!
to disable the chain brake. Make sure
that the chain brake is working
properly before using the chain saw.
The chain kickback brake handle
should move back and forth easily.
