Adding chain oil
WARNING. Never start work unless the chain and bar are lubricated.
1.Place the chain saw on its side with the oil cap facing up. Untwist and remove the oil tank cap (23).
2.Fill the tank to 80% capacity with chain oil.
3.Fasten the cap and wipe up any oil spillage.
Starting the chainsaw
WARNING. Do not start the motor whilst the saw hangs from one hand. This is very dangerous as the chain may come in contact with your body.
1.Fill the fuel and oil tanks respectively and tighten the caps securely.
2.Set the on/off switch (19) to On (the I position). Make sure that the chain brake is released by pulling the front guard (9) towards the rear of the saw.
3.When the machine is cold first pull out the choke control (18)
to the CHOKE position. (Fully withdrawn).
NOTE. Once the choke control has been pulled out, it cannot be pushed back to the run position. It returns automatically when the trigger switch is operated.
4.Hold the chain saw securely on the ground and pull vigorously on the recoil starter
(14).Repeat (at least 15 times) until the engine “kicks” (attempts to start).
5.With the lock off switch
(21)held depressed slightly pull on the trigger switch (20) and then release it. The choke control will click back one position.
6.Pull the recoil starter (14) again and restart the engine. Allow the engine to warm up.
7.When the engine is warm first depress the lock off switch
then pull fully on the trigger switch for a short burst. The choke control will fully retract to the RUN position, your chainsaw is now ready for use.
8.When restarting the engine when it is still warm, set the choke control to the START position. Hold the chain saw securely on the ground and pull vigorously on the recoil starter (14). Allow the engine to run for a few moments with the trigger switch pulled slightly.
9.When the engine is fully warm, pull on the trigger switch. The choke control will fully retract to the RUN position.
