▪ LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN helps significantly reduce kickback or the intensity of
kickback, due to specially designed depth gauges and guard links.
▪ 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.
▪ STOP SWITCH immediately stops the engine when tripped. Stop switch must be pushed
to ON position to start or restart engine.
▪ SAFETY TRIGGER prevents accidental acceleration of the engine. Throttle trigger cannot
be squeezed unless the safety latch is depressed.
▪ 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 CATCHER reduces the danger of injury in the event saw chain breaks or derails
during operation. The chain catcher is designed to intercept a whipping chain.
NOTE: Study your saw and be familiar with its parts.
WARNING! Beware of kickback. Hold chain saw firmly with both hands when
using. For your own safety, please read and follow the safety precautions in
this manual before attempting to operate your chain saw. Improper use can
cause serious injury.
