Checking Chain Lubrication Coasting Brake Chain Brake English Locking chain with chain brake 1 9931BA003 KN The saw chain must always throw off a small amount of oil. NOTICE Never operate your saw without chain lubrication. If the chain runs dry, the whole cutting attachment will be irretrievably damaged within a very short time. Always check chain lubrication and the oil level in the tank before starting work. Every new chain has to be broken in for about 2 to 3 minutes. After breaking in the chain, check chain tension and adjust if necessary - see "Checking Chain Tension". 143BA024 KN 2 The coasting brake brings the running chain to a standstill when you fully let go of the trigger switch. 1 Coasting brake off 2 Coasting brake activated 9931BA002 KN - in an emergency The chain is stopped and locked when the hand guard is pushed toward the bar nose by the left hand - or when brake is activated by inertia in certain kickback situations.
