Starting the engine

Do not start the chain saw until after it is completely
assembled and checked!
Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from the place where
the chain saw was fuelled.
Make sure you have a secure footing, and place the saw on
the ground in such a way that the guide bar and chain are
not near anything.
Actuate the chain brake (block it).
Hold the front handle firmly with one hand and press the saw
against the ground.
Hold the down rear handguard with your right foot as
shown.
Note: The Featherlight-Start System lets you start the saw
without effort. Go through the starting procedure smoothly
and evenly.
Cold starting:
Prime the fuel pump (5) by pressing it several times until you
can see fuel in the pump.
Move the combination switch (1) up (choke position). This
also actuates the half-throttle lock.
Pull the starter handle (2) smoothly and evenly.
CAUTION: Do not pull the starter cable more than about 20"
(50 cm) out, and let it back in slowly by hand.
Repeat the starting procedure twice.
Move the combination switch (1) to the central "ON" position.
Pull the starter handle smoothly and evenly again. As soon
as the engine is running, grasp the rear handle (the safety
lock button (3) is actuated by the palm of the hand) and press
the throttle trigger (4).
CAUTION: The engine must be put in idle immediately after
starting. If this is not done, the clutch can be damaged.
Now disengage the chain brake.
Warm starting:
As described above for cold starting, but before starting push
the combination switch (1) up (Choke position) and then right
away back to the middle "ON" position. This is only to engage
the half-throttle lock. If the engine doesn't start after 2 or 3
pulls, repeat the entire starting procedure as described for
cold starting.
NOTE: If the engine was switched off only for a short time, the
saw can be started without using the combination switch.
Important: If the fuel tank has been completely emptied
and the engine has stopped due to lack of fuel prime the
fuel pump (5) by pressing it several times until you can see
fuel in the pump.

Stopping the engine

Depress the combination switch
NOTE: After being pressed down, the combination switch
will revert to the "ON" position again. The engine is switched
off, but can be turned on again without moving the combina-
tion switch.
IMPORTANT: To cut off the ignition current, push the com-
bination switch all the way down past the resistance point to
the safety position ( ).
