Versions with Easy2Start
The Easy2Start stores the energy for starting the chain saw. For this reason, a few seconds may pass between the pulling of the starter rope and the starting of the engine.
NWith the right hand, pull the starter grip slowly and smoothly – simultaneously press down on the handlebar – do not pull the starter rope out all the way – risk of breakage!
NDo not let the starter grip snap back
– guide it vertically back into the housing so that the starter rope can rewind properly
Starting the chain saw
There must not be anyone within the swivel range of the chain saw.
