• Will the inertia release mechanism always engage
the chain brake during kickback?
No. First, the chain brake must operate correctly.
To do a check of the chain brake on page
Refer to
24 for instructions about how to do a check of the
chain brake. We recommend you to do this each
time before you use the product. Second, the force
of the kickback must be large to engage the chain
brake. If the chain brake is too sensitive, it can
engage during rough operation.
• Will the chain brake always protect me from injury
during a kickback?
No. The chain brake must operate correctly to give
protection. The chain brake must also be engaged
during a kickback to stop the saw chain. If you are
near the guide bar, it is possible that the chain brake
does not have time to stop the saw chain before it
hits you.
WARNING: Only you and the correct
working technique can prevent kickbacks.
