• Push in the choke control as soon as the engine
starts, with the choke pulled out the engine will stop
after a few seconds. (If the engine stops anyway, pull
the starter handle again.)
• Press the throttle trigger to disengage the start throttle
and the machine will idle.
NOTICE! Pull with your right hand out the starter cord
slowly until you feel a resistance (as the starter pawls
engage) and then pull firmly and rapidly.
Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do not let
go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended.
This can damage the machine.
With a warm engine:
• Make sure that the stop switch (STOP) is in the left
position.
• Set the choke control in the choke position. The choke
position is also the automatic start throttle position.
• Decompression valve: Press in the valve to reduce
the pressure in the cylinder, this is to assist starting
the power cutter. The decompression valve should
always be used when starting. The valve
automatically returns to its initial position when the
machine starts.
• Push the choke control to disable the choke (the start
throttle position remains).
• Grip the front handle with your left hand. Put your right
foot on the lower section of the rear handle pressing
the machine against the ground. Pull the starter

WARNING! When the engine is running
!
the exhaust contains chemicals such as
unburned hydrocarbons and carbon
monoxide. The content of the exhaust
fumes is known to cause respiratory
problems, cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive har
Carbon monoxide is colorless and
tasteless and is always present in
exhaust fumes. The onset of carbon
monoxide poisoning is distinguished by
a slight dizziness which may or may not
be recognized by the victim. A person
may collapse and lapse into
unconsciousness with no warning if the
concentration of carbon monoxide is
sufficiently high. Since carbon monoxide
is colorless and odorless, its presence
can not be detected. Any time exhaust
odors are noticed, carbon monoxide is
present. Never use a petrol powered
power cutter indoors or in trenches more
than 3 foot (1 meter) deep or in other
areas with poor ventilation. Ensure
proper ventilation when working in
trenches or other confined areas.
