It is designed to stop the spinning chain instantly by tightening a band around the flywheel. In the event the tip of the chainsaw bar contacts something hard and throws the spinning chain upwards, your hand, wrist or arm should contact this paddle and engage the brake before he chain is able to strike your upper body and cause injury.

Make sure that the sharp cutting edge faces away from the saw on the top of the bar and back to the saw at the bottom of the bar.Fit the chain over the sprocket again and place the bar back in position, making sure that the lug on the adjuster fits into one of the two small holes on the bar.Replace the side cover and fit the nuts finger tight.
