Description

The chain brake is an important part of the chainsaw and is essential for safety. Located at the top handle of the chainsaw, the chain brake is used to stop the chain from rotating on the bar. The chain brake can be engaged by pushing the handle forward or through inertia if the chainsaw starts to kick backward. Made from plastic and metal, this genuine OEM chain brake covers the connection with the bar and helps to prevent injury from a broken or loose chain or other issues. If this brake or the cover is damaged, cracked, or not working properly, they need to be replaced right away. Without it on the chainsaw, it becomes very dangerous to use. It is possible for owners to replace the chain brake on their own with only a wrench. This is a genuine OEM replacement part made to work with a range of chainsaw models. Brands that the chain brake is compatible with include Husqvarna, Craftsman, Poulan, and Poulan Pro.
