NOTE: Allow the saw to run in this position 15-30 sec-
onds, depending upon the temperature.
Push choke lever all the way in to the RUN position.
Squeeze and release the throttle trigger to return the
engine to idle after a total run time of at least 30 sec-
onds.
CAUTION:
Failure to release partial throttle when chain brake lever
is in the brake position will result in serious damage to
the unit. Never squeeze and hold the throttle trigger while
the chain brake is in the brake position.
To Start a Warm Engine:
Set the ignition switch to the RUN ( I ) position.
Make sure the chain brake is in the run position by pulling
back on the lever/hand guard.
Fully press and release the primer bulb 7 times.
Pull choke lever half way out to HALF CHOKE position.
While squeezing both the trigger release and throttle trig-
ger, push in the throttle lock button. Release the throttle

Pull starter grip until engine runs.
Push choke lever all the way in to the RUN position.

STOPPING THE ENGINE
See Figures 12 - 13.
Release the throttle trigger and let the engine return to
idle. To stop the engine, move the ignition switch to the
STOP ( O ) position. Do not put the chain saw on the ground
when the chain is still moving. For additional safety, set the
chain brake when the saw is not in use.
In the event that the ignition switch will not stop the saw,
pull the choke lever out to the fully extended position (FULL
CHOKE / ) and engage chain brake to stop the engine.
If the ignition switch will not stop the saw when set to the
STOP position, have the ignition switch repaired before
using the chain saw again to prevent unsafe conditions or
serious injury.
NOTE: When you are finished using the saw, always relieve
tank pressure by loosening, then retightening, the chain oil
and fuel mix caps. Allow the engine to cool before storing.
