Each time before use, check the following:
• That there are no leaks in the fuel system.
• That the equipment is in perfect condition and that
the safety devices and cutting devices are complete.
• That all screws are securely fastened.
• That all moving parts move smoothly.
Starting the engine when cold (See Fig. 21 & Fig. 27)
Fill up the fuel tank with the relevant mixture of petrol
and oil (Fig. 21), and also top up the chain oil (Fig.
21). See the section ‘Fuel and oil’.
Be certain the chain brake is activated before
starting the unit (Fig. 10).
1. Switch the stop switch to ‘0’ (OFF) (Fig. 19).
2. Pull the choke (17) fully out until it locks (Fig. 18/
arrow direction 1).
3. Push the primer bubble (23) 10 times (Fig. 1).
4.
Place the saw on a firm, flat surface. Hold the
saw firmly as shown. Pull the starter cord (7) rap
-
idly 2 times. (Fig. 22 & Fig. 27) Beware of mov-
ing chain!
5.
Push in the choke lever as far as it will go (Fig.
18/arrow direction 2).
6.
Switch the stop switch to ‘I’ (ON) to start the ma-
chine (Fig. 19/right).
7.
Hold the saw firmly and pull the starter rapidly
4 times. Engine should start (Fig. 22 & Fig. 27).
m
CAUTION
Never allow the starter line to snap back when it has
been pulled out.
This may result in damage.
m
CAUTION
Since the choke (Fig. 18/arrow direction 1) is closed,
the chain starts to move and rotate AT HIGH SPEED,
immediately the engine is started.
8. Let the engine run for 10 seconds to warm up.
Press the safety throttle lock & throttle lever brief-
ly, the engine will go to ‘idling’ speed (Fig. 20).
m
CAUTION
Always pull the starter cable slowly (until you feel
the initial resistance) before you then pull it quickly
to start the engine.
Do not allow the starter cable to whip back of its
own accord.
If the engine does not start up even af-
ter several attempts, read the section
‘Troubleshooting’.
Always pull out the starter cable in a straight line. If
it is pulled out at an angle, friction will occur on the
eyelet.
As a result of this friction, the starter line will become
frayed and will wear away faster. Always hold the
starter cable when the starter line retracts.
Starting the engine when warm
(The equipment has been idle for less than 15-
20min)
m
CAUTION
Do not use a fuel mixture which has been stored for
longer than 90 days.
m
CAUTION
Never use 2-stroke oil with a recommended mixing ratio
of 1:40. The manufacturer’s warranty will be voided in
case of engine damage due to inadequate lubrication.
m
CAUTION
Only use containers designed and approved for the pur-
pose to transport and store fuel. Pour the correct quanti-
ties of petrol and 2-stroke oil into the mixing bottle provided
(see scale printed on the bottle). Then shake the bottle well.
Recommended fuels
Some conventional petrols are being blended with oxy-
genates such as alcohol or an ether compound to meet
clean air standards. Your engine is designed to operate
satisfactorily on any petrol intended for automotive use
including oxygenated petrols.
It is recommended to use unleaded petrol as fuel.
Lubrication of chain and chain bar
Whenever you refill the fuel tank with petrol you must
also top up the level of chain oil in the chain oil tank. It is
recommended to use standard chain oil.
6. Fuel mixing table
Mixing Procedure: 40 parts petrol to 1 part 2-stroke oil.
Petrol
2-stroke oil
1 litre
25 ml
5 litres
125 ml
m
CAUTION
Never start or operate the saw unless the bar, chain
and chain brake lever / front hand guard are properly
installed.
• Fill the fuel tank with correct fuel mixture (Fig. 21/
pos. K).
• Fill the oil tank with chain oil (Fig. 21/pos. L).
• Be certain the chain brake is activated before start-
ing the unit (Fig. 11/pos 5).
Once you have filled the chain and oil tank,
tighten the tank cover securely by hand.
Do not use any tools to do so.
7. Idle speed adjustment
If the cutting attachment still rotates in idle speed, con-
tact Authorized Service Centers for correct idle speed
adjustment.
Note:
When the engine is idling the cutting attachment
must rotate under no circumstances!
8. Operation
Please note that the statutory regulations govern-
ing noise abatement may differ from one location
to another.
