🛠️ Mechanic's Tip:
A cracked or sloppy hand guard is a major safety hazard. When replacing the guard, inspect the brake spring and the pivot bushings. If the guard doesn't "snap" firmly into the braked position, check for sawdust buildup in the brake mechanism or a worn brake band. Always test the brake function before fueling the saw.
