Affected chain saws have manufacture date between November 2007 and August 2008. Both the model number and the date of manufacture appear on the chain saw's data plate, located beneath the rear handle of the saw. Products with a green "dot" sticker under the bottom side of the handle area and on the outside of the package are not subject to this recall. Hazards: The chain brake can fail to stop the chain on its first application, posing a risk of laceration to consumers.
