THROTTLE LOCK-- OUT
The THROTTLE LOCK--OUT must be

trigger. This feature prevents you from acci-
dentally squeezing the trigger.
CHOKE/FAST IDLE LEVER
The choke and fast idle speed are set by pull-
ing the CHOKE/FAST IDLE LEVER out fully

provides additional fuel to the engine during
cold starting.
CHAIN BRAKE
The CHAIN BRAKE is a device designed to
stop the chain if kickback occurs. The chain
brake activates automatically in the event of
kickback. The chain brake activates manu-
ally if the front hand guard is pushed forward.
The chain brake is disengaged by pulling the
front hand guard back toward the front han-
dle as far as possible.
CHAIN TENSION
It is normal for a new chain to stretch during
first 30 minutes of operation. You should
check your chain tension frequently. See
CHAIN TENSION in the ASSEMBLY sec-
tion.
WARNING:
Muffler is very hot dur-
ing and after use. Do not touch the muffler or
allow combustible material such as dry
grass or fuel to do so.
