Stopping

STARTING AND STOPPING

Push in the choke control as soon as the engine ﬁres and keep pulling until the engine starts. When the engine starts, quickly apply full throttle; the throttle start lock will automatically disengage.

As the chain brake is still engaged the speed of the engine must be set to idling as soon as possible, this is achieved by quickly disengaging the throttle lock. This prevents unnecessary wear to the clutch, clutch drum and brake band.

Reactivate the chain brake by pushing the front hand guard back towards the front handle. The chain saw is now ready for use.

Stop the engine by switching off the ignition. (Move the ignition switch to stop position.)
