RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION

SAFETY FEATURES
Numbers preceding the descriptions correspond with the
numbers above to help you locate the safety feature.

2 LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN helps significantly

reduce kickback, or the intensity of kickback, due to
specially designed depth gauges and guard links.

4 SPARK ARRESTER SCREEN retains carbon and

other flammable particles over 0.023 inches (0.6mm)
in size from engine exhaust flow. Compliance with
local, state and federal laws and/or regulations
governing the use of a spark arrester screen is the
user’s responsibility. See Safety Precautions for
additional information.

5 CHAIN BRAKE® LEVER / HAND GUARD protects the

operator’s left hand in the event it slips off the front
handle while saw is running.

5 CHAIN BRAKE® is a safety feature designed to

reduce the possibility of injury due to kickback by
stopping a moving saw chain in milliseconds. It is
activated by the CHAIN BRAKE® lever.

10 STOP SWITCH immediately stops the engine when

tripped. Stop switch must be pushed to ON position
to start or restart engine.

11 SAFETY TRIGGER prevents accidental acceleration

of the engine. Throttle trigger (19) cannot be
squeezed unless the safety latch is depressed.

20 CHAIN CATCHER reduces the danger of injury in the

event saw chain breaks or derails during operation.
The chain catcher is designed to intercept a whipping
chain.
