AUTOMATIC CHAIN BRAKE

Kickback produced from the tip of the guide bar will
trip the automatic chain brake. To make sure that
the automatic chain brake operates properly, follow
these steps:
1. Stop the engine.
2. Hold the saw with the guide bar approximately
35 cm above a wooden surface. Right hand
should hold the rear handle, and left hand should
hold the front handle.
3. Release the front handle and drop the end of the
guide bar against the wooden surface.
4. The impact should lock the chain brake.
IMPORTANT
When checking the operation of the automatic
chain brake, use a soft surface substance like
wood to provide the impact so the chain is not
damaged.
WINTER KIT
Use the winter kit with chain saw to prevent
carburetor trouble in the winter.
Install the kit as follows.
• Remove air cleaner cover. Remove plug from
warm weather position, and install into cold
weather "strage" position.
• Snow protector (Optional)
- Snow protector prevents snow from getting into
the unit through the fan cover. Set the protector
hook (2 pieces) to the fan cover. Ensure that
the setting direction is correct as shown.
Tighten two screws to fasten the snow
protector.
NOTE
For operation at normal temperature return the
plug to its original place and remove the snow
protector. (5°C, 41°F)
It causes over heating of the engine.
