Start and stop
WARNING!
• Never start the saw engine without the bar, chain and
clutch cover (chain brake) assembled - or else the
clutch can come loose and cause personal injuries.
• Always move the saw away from the fueling area
before starting.
• Place the saw on clear ground and make sure that the
chain is not contacting anything. Also, make sure that
you have a secure footing.
• Keep people and animals well away from the working
area.
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
fire 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.
Cold engine
STARTING:
The chain brake should be
activated when starting the
chain saw. Activate the chain
brake by pushing the front
hand guard forwards.
IGNITION; CHOKE:
Set the choke control in choke
position. The stop contact will
automatically be set to start
position.
FAST IDLE:
Combined choke/fast idle is
received when the choke is
moved to choke position.
If the saw is fitted with a
decompression valve (A):
Press the valve to reduce the
pressure in the cylinder and
make starting easier. Always
use the decompression valve
when starting the saw. Once
the saw has started the valve
will automatically return to its
original setting.
Warm engine
Use the same procedure as
for starting cold engine but
without choke. Fast idle is
recived by first set the choke
control in choke position, and
then back again.
Stop
The engine is stopped by
switching off the ignition.

WARNING!
The catalytic converter muffler gets very hot
during and after use. This also applies during
idling. Be aware of the fire hazard, especially
when handling the saw near flammable
substances or vapours.
