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.
If the chain delays in stopping or it does not stop,
please see the customer service.
Check the chain brake before each use and make
sure it is sharp.
There is a greater risk of personal injury if the safety
devices are not used, maintenance is inadequate or
the bar or chain are not placed in the correct position.
7. USING THE MACHINE
The machine must only be used for the purpose
for which it has been designed. Any other purpose
could be dangerous, causing damage to the machine.
Keep body away from the chain of the chainsaw when
the engine is running.
