START AND STOP
Start
Grip the front handle with your
left hand and hold the saw
down by putting your right foot
in the rear handle. Pull the
starter handle with your right
hand and pull out the starter
cord slowly until the starter
pawls engage. Then pull
sharply. Never wrap the
starter cord around your hand.
Push in the choke control
immediately when the engine
ignites and make repeated
starting attemps. Immediately
press and release the throttle
when the engine starts. That
will disengage the throttle
latch.
As the chain brake is still
activated the engine must
return to idling speed as soon
as possible by disengaging
the throttle latch in order to
avoid unnecessary wear on
the clutch assembly.
CAUTION! Do not release the
starter handle from fully pulled
out position as this can cause
damage on the saw.
Pull the front hand guard
towards the front handle. The
chain brake is now
disengaged. Your saw is now
ready for use.
Stop
The engine is stopped by
switching off the ignition.
(Move the ignition switch to
stop position.)
