English
Do not let the starter grip snap back
N
– guide it slowly back into the
housing so that the starter rope can
rewind properly
Repeat this procedure until the
N
engine starts
Once the engine is running
Press the throttle trigger lockout and
N
accelerate – the choke lever jumps
to the run position F – after a cold
start, let the engine warm up with a
few load cycles
If the carburetor has been set correctly,
the cutting attachment should not rotate
when the engine is idling!
The machine is now ready for use.
Switching off the engine
Press stop switch – the engine
N
stops – release stop switch – the
stop switch returns to its original

Additional hints on starting
At very low temperatures
If necessary, convert engine to

winter operation, see "Winter
operation"
If the chain saw is extremely cold
N
(frost formation) – after starting,
bring the engine up to operating
temperature at increased idle speed
(cutting attachment rotates!)
The engine stops in the cold start
position g or while accelerating.
Set choke level to < – continue
N
cranking until the engine runs
The engine does not start in the hot start
position <
Set choke level to g – continue
N
cranking until the engine runs
Engine does not start
Check if all operating elements are
N
set correctly
Check whether there is fuel in the
N
tank and refuel if necessary
Check whether the spark plug boot

is connected securely
Repeat the starting procedure

If the tank has been drained completely
After refueling, press the fuel pump

Operating Instructions

During break-in period
A factory-new machine should not be
run at high revs (full throttle off load) for
the first three tank fillings. This avoids
unnecessary high loads during the
break-in period. As all moving parts
have to bed in during the break-in
period, the frictional resistances in the
engine are greater during this period.
The engine develops its maximum
power after about 5 to 15 tank fillings.
During Operation
After a long period of full throttle
operation, allow the engine to run for a
short while at idle speed so that engine
heat can be dissipated by the flow of
cooling air. This protects engine-
mounted components (ignition,
carburetor) from thermal overload.
After Finishing Work
Storing for a short period: Wait for the
engine to cool down. Empty the fuel tank
and keep the machine in a dry place,
well away from sources of ignition, until
you need it again. For longer out-of-
service periods – see "Storing the
Machine".
