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 must be re-
placed if any part is worn to less than
0.020 inch (0.5 mm) thick. Repairs on a
chain brake should be made by your
Sears Service Center. Take your unit to
the place of purchase or to the nearest
Sears Service Center.

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 possibie.
