Quick repeated stops may cause overheating of the chain brake. Damage to the chain brake will occur. CUTTING WITH THE CHAIN SAW 1. Connect saw to extension cord. Connect extension cord to power supply. 2. Make sure section of log to be cut is not laying on ground. This will keep chain from touching ground as it cuts through log. Touching ground with moving chain will dull chain. 3. Use both hands to grip saw. Always use left hand to grip front handle and right hand to grip rear handle. Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers must wrap around saw handles (see Figure 9). Trigger Figure 9 - Front Hand Guard, Switch Lockout, and Trigger Location Front Hand Guard Switch Lockout CHAIN BRAKE The chain brake quickly stops the saw chain. Kickback causes the back of operator’s left hand to contact front hand guard (see Figure 10). When front hand guard moves forward, the saw chain stops. This reduces the chance of serious injury during kickback. When the chain brake activates, release trigger at once.
