:
Place your saw on the ground.
:
Make sure you have a firm footing –
check that chain is not touching any
object or the ground.
Bystanders must be well clear of the
general work area of the saw.
:
Hold the saw firmly on the ground
with your left hand on the front
handle – your thumb should be
under the handlebar.
:
Put your right foot into the rear
handle and press down.
Alternative method of starting:
:
Hold the rear handle tightly between
your legs, just above the knees.
:
Hold the front handle firmly with
your left hand – your thumb should
be under the handlebar.
:
Pull the starter grip slowly with your
right hand until you feel it engage –
then give the grip a brisk strong pull
and push down the front handle at
the same time.
Do not pull out the starter rope all
the way – it might otherwise break.
:
Do not let the starter grip snap back
– guide it slowly and vertically into
the housing so that the starter rope
can rewind properly.
If the engine is new, pull the starter
several times to prime the fuel system.
