Safety functions of the components (see S4)
Point 3: on/off switch stops the engine immediately when it is switched off. The stop switch
must be used to (re)start the engine
Point 7: Saw chain with low kickback helps you to reduce kickback forces with specially
developed safety device and to absorb them better
Point 10: chain brake/hand guard protects the operator's left hand if it should slip off the front
handle while the saw is running. Chain brake is a safety function to reduce injuries due to
kickback by stopping a running saw chain in milliseconds. It is activated by the chain brake
lever point 17. Throttle lock prevents accidental acceleration of the engine. The throttle stick
can only be pressed when the throttle stick lock is pressed

engine is running. The chain catcher is designed to catch a chain that is knocking around in the
crack
