CHAIN BRAKE
The CHAIN BRAKE is a device designed
to stop the chain if kickback occurs. The
chain brake activates automatically in
the event of kickback. The chain brake
activates manually if the front hand
guard is pushed forward. The chain
brake is disengaged by pulling the front
hand guard back toward the front handle
as far as possible.
CHAIN TENSION
It is normal for a new chain to stretch
during the first 15 minutes of operation.
You should check your chain tension
frequently. See CHAIN TENSION under
the MAINTENANCE section.
,_WARNING: Muffler is very hot
during and after use. Do not touch the
muffler or allow combustible material
such as dry grass or fuel to do so.
