(chain brake lever) (3) back towards the front handle (2).
2. Place the product on any suitable flat surface, make sure the saw chain (8) is not touching the surface or

safeguard (chain brake lever) (3). The saw chain (8) should stop immediately.
WARNING! The motor will not start if the chain brake is in the engaged position.
WARNING! If the saw chain (8) and motor fail to stop when the chain brake is
engaged, take the product to the nearest authorised service centre or a similarly
qualified person! Do not use the product if the chain brake is not in working properly!
