Switch action WARNING: For your safety, this tool is equipped with lock-off lever which prevents the tool from unintended starting. NEVER use the tool if it runs when you simply pull the switch trigger without pressing the lock-off lever. Return the tool to our authorized service center for proper repairs BEFORE further usage. WARNING: NEVER tape down or defeat purpose and function of lock-off lever. CAUTION: Before installing the battery cartridge into the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released. NOTICE: Do not pull the switch trigger hard without pressing the lock-off lever. This can cause switch breakage. To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally pulled, a lock-off lever is provided. To start the tool, depress the lock-off lever and pull the switch trigger. The tool speed increases by increasing pressure on the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop. Checking the chain brake CAUTION: Hold the chain saw with both hands when switching it on.
