KICKBACK SAFETY DEVICES
ON THIS SAW
CHAIN BRAKE
The chain saw comes equipped with a
chain brake, which stops both the motor
and the motion of the chain when
kickback occurs (Fig 4) The chain brake
can be activated by the forward motion
of the hand guard as the saw rotates
backward during kickback; it can also be
activated by the inertial forces generated
during rapid pushback
FIG. 4
DANGER: NEVER MODIFY OR
ATTEMPT TO DISABLE THE CHAIN
BRAKE.

chain that met the reduced kickback
requirements of ANSI B175 1 when tested

BAR
This saw comes equipped with a guide
bar that has a small radius nose Small
