Chain Lubrication Test; Starting The Warm Engine - Hitachi CS 40EA Mode D'emploi

NOTE
When the choke control knob is put back to the
original position after it is fully pulled, the throttle
trigger will be kept half-open (half-throttled).
7. Pull recoil starter (21) briskly again in the
aforementioned manner. (Fig. 16)
NOTE
If engine does not start, repeat procedures from
4 to 7.
8. As soon as engine start, with the throttle trigger
lockout (22) pressed, pull the throttle trigger (23)
and immediately release the throttle trigger (23).
(Fig. 17)
Then half-throttle is disengaged.
9. Make sure chain brake is disengaged. (Fig. 18)
Allow the engine about 2-3 minutes to warm up
before subjecting it to any load.
Do not run the engine at high speed unnecessarily
without the load to avoid shortening the life of the
engine.
For about 10 hours since the fi rst use of the chain
saw after purchase, do not run the engine at high
speed (rev up the engine) unnecessarily without
the load in order to warm up each part of the
engine.

Starting the warm engine

Use only 1, 2, 7, and 9 of the starting procedure for
a cold engine.
If the engine does not start, use the same starting
procedure as for a cold engine.

Chain lubrication test

Check that chain oil is discharged properly. When
the saw chain starts to revolve, point the head of
the guide bar to a stump, etc., and pull the throttle
trigger to perform high-speed operation for around
10 seconds. If chain oil is sprayed over the stump, it
is discharged properly. (Fig. 19)
Chain brake operation (Fig. 20)
Chain brake is designed to activate in an emergency
such as kick-back action. Please check to verify
that it works properly before use.
Application of brake is made by moving the front
hand guard (2) towards the bar. During the chain
brake operation, even if the throttle trigger is pulled,
the engine speed does not increase and the chain
does not turn. To release the brake, pull up the front
hand guard (2).
How to confi rm:
1) Turn off the engine.
2) Holding the chain saw horizontally, release your
hand from the front handle, hit the tip of the guide
bar to a stump or a piece of wood, and confi rm
brake operation. Operating level varies by bar
size.
