as well as a knowledge of the project you are attempting.

operating features and safety rules.
CHOKE LEVER
The choke lever opens and closes the choke valve in the
carburetor. Positions available include FULL CHOKE, HALF
CHOKE, and RUN.
FRONT HAND GUARD / CHAIN BRAKE
The chain brake is designed to quickly stop the chain from
rotating. When the front hand guard/chain brake is pushed
toward the bar, the chain should stop immediately. The chain
brake does not prevent kickback.
GUIDE BAR
The factory-equipped guide bar has a small radius tip that
offers a somewhat lower kickback potential.
LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN
The low kickback saw chain helps minimize the force of a
kickback reaction by preventing the cutters from digging in
too deeply at the kickback zone.
PRIMER BULB
The primer bulb pumps fuel from the fuel tank to the
carburetor.
SAFE-T-TIP ANTI-KICKBACK NOSE GUARD
The SAFE-T-TIP Anti-Kickback Nose Guard is an attach-
ment provided on the end of the guide bar to prevent the
chain on the end of the guide bar from contacting the
wood.
THROTTLE TRIGGER
The throttle trigger is used for starting the chain saw, and
also for controlling chain rotation.
