6. Pull the start up rope until the engine starts or it
makes one explosion.
7. Push the choke lever downwards. (Normal
operating position).
8. If the tool has not started, pull the starting rope
again (6) until it starts.
9. Leave the engine to warm up for a few minutes
before using the machine
6.4.2. STARTING UP WITH THE ENGINE WARM
If the machine is hot, put the switch (I), make sure the
choke is stuck and pull the starter rope until engine
starts. If after a few attempts the machine will not
start follow the steps starting with a cold engine.
6.4.3. STOPPING THE ENGINE
Release the throttle lever and leave the engine running
idle for thirty seconds.
Stop the engine by
moving the ignition
switch (1) to the STOP
position (0).
6.4.4. CHECKING THE CLUTCH
After starting up and the engine is hot, the
chain must not be moved if the engine is
idle
If the chain turns with the engine running and without
accelerating, it will be necessary to regulate the idling
regime of the engine. To do this, turn the carburetor
nut “T” until the engine stops. If you are unable to
regulate the idling regime to stop the chain, because
the engine stalls, please contact the customer service
for help.
The regulation of the screws (H) and (L)
must only be carried out by an official
technical service.
6.4.5. CHECKING THE OIL SUPPLY
After starting the engine,
accelerate in order to move
the chain at an average
speed and check that the oil
is dispersed as shown in the
diagram.
The chain oil flow can be
regulated by using the oil
regulation nut (1). This is to
be found next to the clutch
under the machine.
In order to regulate the oil flow use a screwdriver and
turn the screw either left or right to increase the flow
“MAX” or diminish it “MIN”. The words “MAX” and
“MIN” are to be found under the tool.
Ensure the oil reservoir is topped up every time fuel
is added.
6.4.6. PROTECTION AGAINST KICKBACK
Kickback is the most important danger of
these tools.
This tool is equipped with an automatic brake which
stops the chain turning if there is kickback while the
work is being carried out.
6.4.7. CHECKING THE SAFETY BRAKE
Put the engine at full power during 1-2 seconds and
push the brake lever forwards. The chain should
immediately stop while the engine is still running.
