GB | Operating Instructions
5) Hold the chainsaw fast as shown in fig. 28.
Make sure the area around the bar and the chain is
free of any objects.
6) Give the starter cord handle a strong pull, until the
first coughs from the engine (normally not more than
4/5 times) fig. 28.
ATTENTION to the possibility of the chain
moving.
7) Fully press down the air knob (choke) (fig. 29), so
that the "THROTTLE ADVANCE" remains engaged.
8) Continue to pull the starter cord (fig. 28) until the en-
gine starts.
CAUTION-HAZARD! The cutting chain
moves because the throttle trigger is par-
tially advanced.
- Hold the chainsaw firm (Fig. 28) letting the engine and
chain run for at least 15 seconds (for preheating).
9) Using the palm of your hand, press the throttle trigger
lock-out (fig. 29 part. 1) and then press the throttle
trigger (fig. 29 part 2); this way "THE THROTTLE AD-
VANCEMENT" will disengage and the engine will run
at minimum speed.
10) Do not use the chainsaw if the chain moves at the
minimum engine setting. Instead, apply to a service
centre for assistance.
11) Do not move or transport the chainsaw with the en-
gine running. During transport, cover the bar with the
protector provided.
