Starting the engine
Do not start the chain saw until after it is completely as-
sembled and checked!
Move at least 3 meters / 10 feet away from the place where the
chain saw was fuelled.
Make sure you have a secure footing, and place the saw on
the ground in such a way that the guide bar and chain are not
near anything.
Actuate the chain brake (block it).
Hold the front handle firmly with one hand and press the saw
against the ground.
Hold the down rear handguard with your right foot as shown.
Note: The Featherlight‑Start System lets you start the saw
without effort. Go through the starting procedure smoothly and
evenly.
Cold starting:
Prime the fuel pump (5) by pressing it several times until you
can see fuel in the pump.
Move the combination switch (1) up (choke position). This also
actuates the half‑throttle lock.
Pull the starter handle (2) smoothly and evenly.
CAUTION: Do not pull the starter cable more than about 50 cm/20”
out, and let it back in slowly by hand.
Repeat the starting procedure twice.
Move the combination switch (1) to the central “ON” position.
Pull the starter handle smoothly and evenly again. As soon as
the engine is running, grasp the rear handle (the safety lock
button (3) is actuated by the palm of the hand) and press the
throttle trigger (4).
CAUTION: The engine must be put in idle immediately after
starting. If this is not done, the clutch can be damaged.
Now disengage the chain brake.
Warm starting:
As described above for cold starting, but before starting push
the combination switch (1) up (Choke position) and
then right away back to the middle “ON” position. This is only
to engage the half‑throttle lock. If the engine doesn’t start after
2 or 3 pulls, repeat the entire starting procedure as described
for cold starting.
NOTE: If the engine was switched off only for a short time, the
saw can be started without using the combination switch.
Important: If the fuel tank has been completely emptied and the
engine has stopped due to lack of fuel prime the fuel pump (5) by
pressing it several times until you can see fuel in the pump.
Stopping the engine
Push the combination switch (1) down into the position.
NOTE: After being pressed down, the combination switch will
revert to the ON position again. The ignition current is interrupt‑
ed, but can also be started without operating the combination
switch again.
CAUTION: Depress the combination switch completely, over‑
coming the resistance, to position in order to reach the
safety position.
