CHAIN BRAKE
_I_WARNING:
If the brake band is
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
1/32" 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 Ser-
vice Center.

brake. The brake is designed to stop
the chain if kickback occurs.
• The inertia-activated
chain brake is
activated if the front hand guard is
pushed forward, either manually (by

• If the brake is already activated,
it is
disengaged by pulling the front hand
guard back toward the front handle
as far as possible.
• When cutting with the saw, the chain
