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 :
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.
To test the operation of the chain brake,
perform the following steps (Fig. 6):
◾ ◾
Place the chain saw on a flat bare
surface and make sure no objects
or obstructions that could come in
contact with the bar and chain are
in the immediate vicinity.
◾ ◾
Disengage the chain brake by
pulling the chain kickback brake
handle towards the front handle.
