Milwaukee Brake Lever
Model Number: 44-10-4188
The Milwaukee 44-10-4188 is a genuine OEM Brake Lever for use in compatible Milwaukee chainsaws. The brake lever — also called the front hand guard — is the pivoting lever positioned in front of the operator's front hand that actuates the chainsaw's inertia chain brake system. When the operator's wrist or hand contacts the brake lever during kickback, or when the operator deliberately pushes forward on it, the lever releases the chain brake spring to instantaneously clamp the brake band around the clutch drum and stop the chain. The chain brake is one of the most critical safety systems on the chainsaw; Milwaukee's operating instructions require the chain brake to be functioning correctly before every use. A cracked, broken, or non-actuating brake lever that prevents correct chain brake engagement is a serious safety hazard requiring immediate replacement before the chainsaw is used.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM brake lever ensures the correct actuation geometry and spring interface for the chain brake system it serves. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct lever for your specific unit.
