2. Start engine and allow it to warm up in low speed for
a few minutes.
3. Turn idle adjusting screw (T) counter-clockwise so
that saw chain does not turn. If idling speed is too
slow, turn the screw clockwise.
4. Make a test cut adjust the H needle for best cutting
power, not for maximum speed.
Chain brake
The chain brake is a device which stops the chain in-
stantaneously if the chain saw recoils due to kickback.
Normally, the brake is activated automatically by inertial
force. It can also be activated manually by pushing the
brake lever (Front handle guard) down toward the front.
When the brake operates, a white cone pops up from the
base of the brake lever.
To release brake, pull up the front handle guard toward
the front handle till "click" sound is heard.
WARNING
When the brake operates, release the throttle lever to
slow down the engine speed. Continuous operation with
the brake engaged will generate heat from the clutch and
may cause trouble. Be sure to confirm brake operation
on the daily inspection.
1. Turn off the engine.
2. Holding the chain saw horizontally, release your
hand from the front handle, hit the tip of the guide
bar to a stump or a piece of wood, and confirm brake
operation.
In case the brake is not effective, ask our dealer
inspection and repairing.

WARNING
Before proceeding to your job, read „For Safe Operation"
section It is recommended to first practice sawing easy
logs. This also helps you get accustomed to your unit.
Always follow all the safety regulations which can restrict
the use of the machine. The chain saw must only be
used for cutting wood. It is forbidden to cut other types
of material. Vibrations and kickback vary with different
materials and the requirements of the safety regulations
would not be respected. Do not use the chain saw as
a lever for lifting, moving or splitting objects. Do not
lock it over fixed stands. It is forbidden to hitch tools or
applications to the P.t.o. that are not specified by the
manufacturer.
It is not necessary to force the saw into the cut. Ap-
ply only light pressure while running the engine at full
throttle.
It is recommended that daily inspection before use and
after dropping or other impacts to identify significant
damage or defects.
