STARTING AND STOPPING
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 handle with your right hand and pull out
the starter cord slowly until you feel a resistance (as the
starter pawls engage) then pull rmly and rapidly until the
engine starts.
Push in the choke control as soon as the engine res
which can be heard through a "puff" sound. Keep on
pulling the cord powerfully until the engine starts.
Warm engine
Use the same starting procedure as for a cold engine but
without setting the choke control in the choke position.
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 handle with your right hand and pull out
the starter cord slowly until you feel a resistance (as the
starter pawls engage) then pull rmly and rapidly until the
engine starts.
NOTE! 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.
As the chain brake is still engaged the speed of the
engine must be set to idling as soon as possible, this is
achieved by quickly pressing the throttle trigger once.
This prevents unnecessary wear to the clutch, clutch
drum and brake band.
Note! Reactivate the chain brake by pushing the front
hand guard back towards the front handle. The chain saw
is now ready for use.
