Recommended chain lubricating oil

 

The manufacturer recommends you use only RYOBI 

chainsaw lubricating oil. (Available from your authorised 

service centre)

STARTING THE PRODUCT

Starting the product differs depending on whether the 

engine is cold or warm.

 WARNING

Keep your body to the left of the chain line. Never 

straddle the saw or chain, or lean over past the chain 

line. 

 

Place  the  product  on  level  ground  with  the  starter 

grip facing the operator and ensure that no objects or 

obstructions are in the immediate vicinity that could 

come in contact with the bar and chain.

 

Hold the front handle firmly with your left hand and put 

your right foot onto the base of the rear handle.

To start a cold engine:

See page 14 - 15.

1.  Engage the chain brake by pushing the front hand 

guard/chain brake forward.

2.  Fully press and release the primer bulb at least 10 

times.

3. 

Pull  the  choke  lever  all  the  way  out  to  the  full-choke 

position.

4.  When the temperature is above 10°C, pull the starter 

grip until the engine attempts to start, but no more than 

3 times. When the temperature is below 10°C, pull the 

starter grip until the engine attempts to start, but no 

more than 5 times.

5. 

Push the choke lever to the half-choke position.

6. 

Pull the starter grip until engine starts.

7.  Depress the trigger release and squeeze the throttle 

trigger, then release the throttle trigger to return the 

engine to idle.

8.  Allow the product to run idle for 15 - 30 seconds.

9.  Before accelerating the engine or cutting wood, make 

sure the chain brake is disengaged by pulling the front 

hand guard/chain brake back.

 

 CAUTION

Failure to fully release the throttle when chain brake lever 

is in the brake position will result in serious damage to 

the product. Never squeeze and hold the throttle trigger 

while the chain brake is in the brake position.

To start a warm engine:

See page 23 - 24.

1.  Engage the chain brake.

2. 

Pull  the  choke  lever  all  the  way  out  to  the  full-choke 

position.

3. 

Push the choke lever to the half-choke position.

4. 

Pull starter grip until engine runs, but no more than 5 

times.

5.  Depress the trigger release and squeeze the throttle 

trigger, then release the throttle trigger to return the 

engine to idle. If engine does not start after 5 pulls, use 

cold engine starting procedure.

6.  Before accelerating the engine or cutting wood, make 

sure the chain brake is disengaged by pulling the front 

hand guard/chain brake back.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

Release the throttle trigger and let the engine return to idle. 

To stop the engine, fully press the stop switch. Do not put 

the product on the ground when the chain is still moving. 

For additional safety, set the chain brake when the product 

is not in use.
In the event that the ignition switch will not stop the product, 

pull the choke lever out to the fully extended position (full-

choke) and engage the chain brake to stop the engine. If 

the ignition switch will not stop the product when 

"STOP"

 is 

fully pressed, have the ignition switch repaired before using 

the product again to prevent unsafe conditions or serious 

injury.

NOTE: 

When you are finished using the product, always 

relieve tank pressure by loosening, then retightening, the 

chain lubricant and fuel caps. Allow the engine to cool 

down before storing.

HOLDING THE PRODUCT

See page 19.

Always hold the product with your right hand on the rear 

handle and your left hand on the front handle. Grip both 

handles with the thumbs and fingers encircling the handles. 

Ensure that your left hand is holding the front handle so that 

your thumb is underneath.

CHECKING AND OPERATING THE CHAIN BRAKE

1.  Engage the chain brake by rotating your left hand 

around the front handle. Allow the back of your hand to 

push the chain brake lever/hand guard toward the bar 

while the chain is rotating rapidly. The chain should stop 

rotating immediately. Be sure to maintain both hands on 

the handles of the product at all times.

2.  Reset the chain brake back into the run position by 

grasping the top of the chain brake lever/hand guard 

and pulling toward the front handle until you hear a 

click.

 WARNING

If the chain brake does not stop the chain immediately, or 

if the chain brake will not stay in the run position without 

assistance, have the product serviced by an authorised 

service centre only prior to use.
