4. Hold the throttle trigger all the way in (full throttle)
5. Pull the starter handle rapidly with your right hand to expel/clear the excess fuel from the combustion
chamber.
6. Clean the
“
spark plug
”
with a cloth to wipe away any excess fuel or oil deposits.
7. Reinstall a
“
spark plug
”
and tighten it firmly; hand tight plus 1/3 a turn with the spark plug wrench.
8. Repeat the WARM ENGINE starting procedure above.

Stopping the Engine
WARNING! The cutting bar continues to rotate for a short period after the throttle is released or the engine is
switched off (flywheel effect).
Stop the engine by setting the “STOP SWITCH” to “OFF” position
.
Filling with Fuel
1. Clean surface around fuel cap to prevent contamination.
2. Loosen fuel cap slowly. Rest the cap on a clean surface.
3. Carefully pour fuel into the tank. Avoid spillage.
4. Prior to replacing the fuel cap, clean and inspect the gasket.
5. Immediately replace fuel cap and hand tighten. Wipe up any fuel spillage.
Check and Adjust Idle Speed
Start the engine and leave it idle, for two or three minutes, or until it warms up.
NOTE! The mixture screws are identified with the L (low speed), H (high speed) and the T (throttle) symbols
visible on the side of the chainsaw.
NOTE!
Don’t touch the
H and L screws.
1. If the cutting bar rotates rapidly while the engine is idle, reduce idle speed by turning the throttle screw counter
clockwise as necessary.
2. If the engine is stalling and won't idle, increase the idle speed by turning the throttle screw clockwise.
Adjusting the Carburettor
WARNING! The cutting bar may rotate when the engine is at an idle speed.
NOTE! The engine will return to idle speed after the throttle trigger is released.
NOTE! You may require moderate level of mechanical knowledge to service your machine, if in doubt please
contact a service centre.
NOTE! As a rule the engine idle should be turned down to a minimum so that the cutting bar is not spinning
rapidly and the engine is only “just” running.
