ON/STOP SWITCH
The ON/STOP switch is located on the trigger
handle and is used to stop the engine. To stop
the engine, push and release the engine
ON/STOP switch.
PRIMER BULB
The PRIMER BULB removes air from the car-
buretor and fuel lines and fills them with fuel.
This allows you to start the engine with fewer
pulls on the starter rope. Activate the primer bulb
by pressing it and allowing it to return to its origi-
nal form.
START LEVER
The START LEVER helps to supply fuel to the
engine to aid in starting. Activate the starting
system by moving the start lever to the START
position. DO NOT squeeze the throttle trigger
until the engine has started and runs. After the
engine starts, allow the engine to warm--up 5
seconds, then fully squeeze the throttle trigger
to deactivate the starting system.
COUPLER
The COUPLER enables optional attach-
ments to be installed on the unit.
CHAIN TENSION
It is normal for a new chain to stretch during
first 15 minutes of operation. You should
check your chain tension frequently. See
CHAIN TENSION in the SERVICE AND AD-
JUSTMENTS section.
