OPERATION
Chain Brake
The chain brake operates automatically in the event of kick back.
The chainsaw is fitted with a hand guard/chain brake which when
operated brings the chain to a stop within a tenth of a second.
The chain brake can be operated manually by pushing it forward or
automatically as a result of kickback.
Kickback occurs if the chain catches on the wood being cut and the chainsaw
recoils back suddenly.
In the event of kickback, your hand (which is on the front handle during
operation) jerks forward causing the back on your hand to push the guard
forward, engaging the chain brake and quickly stopping the chain.
