Starting the Engine

WARNING!
This chain saw is equipped
with a fast idle feature
for ease of engine starting. When
the fast idle is set, the saw chain
will rotate when the engine starts!
Rotating saw chain can cause
serious injury. Clear a safe work
area before starting the engine.
NOTE:
This engine ignition system is controlled
by a two-position "ON-OFF" switch labeled
"I" for ON and "O" for OFF located near
the rear handle.
IMPORTANT!
This chain saw is equipped with a throt-
tle trigger lock out system designed to
prevent unintended throttle activation.
This system requires the operator to
first depress the throttle lock out lever
on top of the rear handle to release the
trigger from the engine idle position.

Engine Start:

1. Move the ignition ON-OFF switch to
the ON position.
2. COLD ENGINE ONLY: Completely
close the choke by pulling the choke
control out to the fully extended posi-
tion. This motion will automatically
engage the "fast idle" setting.
3. WARM ENGINE: Pull the choke
control out to its fully extended posi-
tion and then push the choke control
all the way in again. This motion will
automatically engage the "fast idle"
setting.

inside of the rear handle with the

front handle with the left hand.
6. Grip the starter handle with the right
hand and pull slowly until starter
engagement is felt.
7. With the starter engaged, pull the
starter upward. Repeat until the en-
gine either attempts to start or starts.
8. When the engine attempts to start or
starts, push the choke control in if
previously set. If the engine does not
continue to run, pull the starter until
the engine restarts then immediately
press and release the throttle lever to
disengage the fast idle.
CAUTION!
The recoil starter can be
damaged by abuse!

starting procedure setting the choke
control appropriately for either a cold
or warm engine. If the engine still fails
to start, refer to the section, "Starting a
Flooded Engine."
