• STARTING THE ENGINE WHEN IT IS COLD
PLEASE NOTE: To minimize the stress on the
engine when starting and warming the engine, cut
the excess cutting line to a length of 13 cm (Fig. 7A).
1. Set the ignition switch to "RUN (l)" (Fig. 7B).
2. Fix the gas lever. Press the "Lock off" switch (A)
downwards. Then press the gas lever (B) and
slide the locking switch (C) downwards at the
same time. The gas lever will lock on full (Fig.
7b).
3. The machine has a choke that can be set to one
of three positions: CHOKE " " START" " and
RUN " ". Set the choke lever to CHOKE " " (Fig.
7i).
4. To start the engine, spray fuel into the carbu-
retor. Press the tickler (A) ten times (Fig. 7e).
5. Pull the starter cord a little way out until you feel
resistance (approx. 10 cm) (Fig. 7f). To generate
a strong ignition spark the cord must be pulled
quickly and smoothly. Pull the starter cord four
times quickly and powerfully.
6. Set the choke lever to START" " (Fig. 7h).
7. Pull the starter cord a further four times with the
gas lever set to full.
8. If the engine starts, remain on START" " for 10
seconds.
9. Set the choke to RUN" " (Fig. 7d).
10. If the engine does not start repeat steps 1 to 8.
PLEASE NOTE: If the engine does not start after
you have made several attempts please refer to the
section entitled "Troubleshooting on the engine".
NOTE: Always pull starter rope straight out. Pulling
starter at an angle will cause rope to rub against the
eyelet. This friction will cause the rope to fray and
wear more quickly. Always hold starter handle when
rope retracts. Never allow rope to snap back from
extended position. This could cause rope to snag or
fray and also damage the starter assembly.
• STARTING THE ENGINE WHEN IT IS WARM
1. Place the machine on a hard, flat surface.
2. Set the ignition switch to RUN (l) (Fig. 7b).
3. Set the choke to the START" " position (Fig. 7h).
4. Hold the gas lever tightly and press the trigger
FULLY.
5. Pull the starter cord quickly until the engine
starts. Do not pull the cord more than six times.
Hold the gas lever FULLY pressed until the
engine is running smoothly.

a further five times if the engine does not start. If
the engine still does not start it is probably
