SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Checking the inertia brake release
Hold the chain saw over a stump or other firm object. Let go
of the front handle so that the bar drops towards the stump as
the chain saw rotates around the rear handle.
When the bar hits the stump the brake should be applied.
Checking the brake trigger
Place the chain saw on firm ground and start it. Make sure the
chain does not touch the ground or any other object. See the
instructions under the heading Start and stop.
Grasp the chain saw firmly, wrapping your fingers and thumbs
around the handles.
Apply full throttle and activate the chain brake by tilting your
left wrist forward onto the front hand guard. Do not let go of
the front handle.
The chain should stop immediately.
Throttle lock
• Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle setting
when the throttle lock is released.
• Press the throttle lock and make sure it returns to its
original position when you release it.
• Check that the throttle control and throttle lock move freely
and that the return springs work properly.
• Start the chain saw and apply full throttle. Release the
throttle control and check that the chain stops and
remains stationary. If the chain rotates when the throttle
control is in the idle position you should check the
carburettor idle adjustment.
Chain catcher
Check that the chain catcher is not damaged and is firmly
attached to the body of the chain saw.
Right hand guard
Check that the right hand guard is not damaged and that there
are no visible defects, such as cracks.
