WARNING
When the brake operates, release the throttle lever to slow down the

How to confirm:
1) Turn off the engine.
2) Holding the chain saw horizontally, release your hand from the
front handle, hit the tip of the guide bar to a stump or a piece of
wood, and confirm brake operation. Operating level varies by
bar size.
In case the brake is not effective, contact our authorized service center
