After starting
•
Run the engine at idle speed for some time

Press the throttle slowly to increase the engine speed
When the engine speed is high enough, the clutch disengages and the saw-chain starts to
rotate.
•
Ensure that the chain is sufficiently lubricated (► Check chain lubrication)
•
Check that the chain stops spinning when the throttle is released
Switching off the engine

DANGER!
Danger of injury!
The throttle stick must be pressed lightly once after starting, so that the engine reaches the
correct idle speed and the saw-chain does not start up in idle speed.
Hint:
Pull the pull starter with the choke lever pulled only until the first ignition noise is heard.
Otherwise there is a risk that too much fuel will enter the combustion chamber and no ignition
spark can be produced.
NOTE:
Always drain the appliance before turning it off
