STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Release the trigger and allow the engine to return to
the idle speed.
2. Move the STOP switch up to the STOP position (Fig.
4}.
NOTE: For emergency stopping, push the lever of the
chain brake lever/hand guard (C) forward and
move the STOP switch up {Fig. 3, 4).
STARTING A COLD ENGINE
To be sure to add the correctly mixed fuel to the fuel tank
(A) and to add bar and chain oil to the oil tank (B). Make
sure the chain brake is disengaged (C) before starting the
unit.
1. Slide the STOP switch down (Fig. 4). The red choke
lever (hi) has 3 positions: Positions 1, 2 and 3 (Fig. 6),
2. Fully press and release the primer bulb (G) 10 times,
slowly. Some amount of fuel should be visible in the
primer bulb (Fig. 5). If you can't see fuel in the bulb,
press and release the bulb as many times as it takes
before you can see fuel in it.
3. Move the red choke lever (FI) to Position 1 (Fig. 6).
NOTE: This unit will not run with the lever in Position 1.
4. Place the saw on a firm flat surface. Hold saw firmly
as shown (Fig. 7),
NOTE: The unit uses the INCREDI-PULL™ starting
system with MAX FIRE IGNITION™, which signifi­
cantly reduces the effort required to start the engine.
You must pull the starter rope out far enough to hear the
engine attempt to start. There is no need to pull the rope
briskly-- there is no harsh resistance when pulling. Be
aware that this starting method is vastly different from
(and much easier than) what you may be used to,
5. Hold down safety trigger (E) and squeeze the throttle
trigger (D). With thumb, press down on the throttle
latch (F), Release trigger (D) first. This will lock the
throttle into wide open position (Fig. 3). Pull the rope
with a controlled and steady motion 4 times.
6. Then move the red choke lever (H) to Position 2, being
sure to keep the throttle trigger locked. Hold saw firmly
and pull rope until saw starts. This could take 4 more
pulls.
7. Let the saw warm up for 10 seconds. Depress and
release throttle trigger (D) for idle.
8. Move red choke lever (H) to Position 3. If engine fails
to start, repeat these instructions. If engine does start,
begin chain brake test described on next page,
9. if unit idles roughly, there is an idle adjustment access
hole {L)(Fig, 8). Using a Phillips or slotted screwdriver,
turn screw 1/4 to 1/2 turn clockwise (to the right). Unit
should then idle properly (Fig. 9).
NOTE: If chain turns while idling - turn screw back to the
left until chain stops and unit continues to idle,
