Alternative method of starting:
: Hold the rear handle tightly between
your legs, just above the knees.

your left hand – your thumb should
be under the handle.
Rescue Saw
: Pull the starter grip slowly with your
right hand until you feel it engage –
and then give it a brisk strong pull
and push down the front handle at
the same time.
Do not pull out starter rope to its full
length –
it might otherwise break.
Do not let the starter grip snap back
– guide it slowly and vertically into
the housing so that the starter rope
can rewind properly.
If engine is new, pull starter grip several
times to prime the fuel line.
