WARNING:
0
Under normal circumstances,
it
should never be necessary to intentionally release the
chain brake while the tool
is
running. Occasionally, after the brake has been actuated,
the protector may not reset to the exact original position.
If
this happens, place the tool
on
a
flat surface
in
a
clear area (away from other persons or objects that might contact
the saw chain). Then turn the tool on. After running the tool for
a
couple of seconds,
turn the tool off. While the motor
is
coasting, reset the protector with the same hand
you used to turn the tool on. Hold the tool firmly by grasping the front handle with the
other hand.
Careless handling of the tool
at
this time could result in serious injury, therefore use
extreme caution when resetting the chain brake in this manner.
