8. If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever
(Figure 20) to the
"OPEN"
position. If the engine has not
started repeat steps 1 through 7.
The engine speed has been set at the
factory. Changing the governor speed
could damage the blade and/or the saw.
5. Place the
Choke Lever
(Figure 19) in the "
CLOSED
"
position.
Figure 18. Engine Stop Switch (Handlebar)
The CLOSED position of the
choke lever enriches the fuel
mixture for starting a COLD engine.
The OPEN position provides the
correct fuel mixture for normal
operation after starting, and for
restarting a warm engine.
