: 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.
When engine begins to fire:
: Press in decompression valve
again.
: Move Master Control lever (4) to n
and continue cranking – as soon
as engine runs, immediately blip
the throttle trigger (5)
the Master Control lever (4) will
move to the “Run” position # (6)
and the engine will settle down to
idling speed.
.
As the chain brake is still engaged,
the engine must be returned to
idling speed immediately – or the
engine and chain brake might
otherwise be damaged.
: Pull the hand guard back toward
the front handle:=
The chain brake is now disengaged
– your saw is ready for operation.
Always disengage chain brake
before accelerating engine. High
revs with the chain brake engaged
(chain locked) will quickly damage
the powerhead and chain drive
(clutch, chain brake).
: Observe safety precautions.
: Always check operation of chain
lubrication before starting work.
