1. H and L needles are restricted within the number of
turn as shown below.
H needle : 1 1/2 ± 1/2
L needle : 2 1/8 ± 1/2
2. Start the engine and allow it to warm up in low speed
for a few minutes.
3. Turn the idle adjusting screw (T) counterclockwise
so that the saw chain does not turn. If the idling
speed is too slow, turn the screw clockwise.
4. Make a test cut and adjust the H needle for best
cutting power, not for maximum speed.
■ CHAIN BRAKE
The chain brake is a device which stops the chain in-
stantaneously if the chain saw recoils due to kickback.
Normally, the brake is activated automatically by iner-
tial force. It can also be activated manually by pushing
the brake lever (left-hand guard) down toward the front.
When the brake operates, a yellow cone pops up from
the base of the brake lever.
Releasing the Brake
Pull the brake lever up toward the left-hand handle until
it clicks into place.
WARNING
• When the brake operates, release the throttle lever
to slow down the engine speed. Continuous opera-
tion with the brake engaged will generate heat from
the clutch and may cause trouble.
• At machine inspection prior to each job, check the
operating condition of the brake following the
steps.
• When the brake operates, don't put hands near the
yellow cone pops up.
1. Start the engine and grasp the handle securely with
both hands.
2. Pulling the throttle lever to maintain the chain oper-
ation, push the brake lever (left-hand guard) down
toward the front using the back of your left hand.
3. When the brake operates and the chain is stopped,
release the throttle lever.
4. Release the brake.

■ TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
• Always store the chain saw and fuel so that there
is no risk of leakages or fumes coming into contact
with sparks or naked flames from electrical equip-
ment, electric motors, relays/switches, boilers and
the like.
• Always store fuel in an approved container de-
signed for that purpose.
• For longer periods of storage or for transport of the
chain saw, the fuel and chain oil tanks should be
emptied. Ask where you can dispose of waste fuel
and chain oil at your local petrol station.
• The guide bar cover must always be fitted to the
cutting attachment when the machine is being
transported or in storage, in order to prevent acci-
dent contact with the sharp chain. Even a non-
moving chain can cause serious cuts to yourself or
persons you bump into with an exposed chain.
• Secure the machine during transport.
■ LONG-TERM STORAGE
Empty the fuel/oil tanks in a well ventilated area. Store
the fuel in approved cans in a safe place. Fit the guide
bar cover. Clean the machine. See instructions under
the heading Maintenance schedule.
Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete
service is carried out before long-term storage.
