Starting Your Chainsaw - Oregon JW3800 Operación Manual

Starting the chainsaw
! Ensure that you are using the correct fuel mix
see Fuel mix and fuelling.
! Ensure that the chain brake is fully pushed
forward into the locked position, this will
prevent the chain from spinning freely when
starting and ignoring this may cause serious
injury.
Pull the choke lever out fully
Next, push the engine switch upwards into the
start position
Now we need to prime the engine to ensure the
chainsaw will start .To prime, push the priming
bulb in and out several times*.
*Please note, you cannot over prime the unit,
however under priming may prevent the
chainsaw from operating correctly.
The unit is now ready to be started.
! NEVER START YOU CHAINSAW USING THE
DROP METHOD (dropping the saw with one
hand while pulling the cord with the other)
THIS IS DANGEROUS AND CAN LEAD TO SEVERE
INJURY!
Lay the unit onto the ground and position
yourself with one foot placed in the Throttle
handle area, firmly keeping the unit still.
At the same time firmly hold the main handle,
using your other hand pull the cord firmly until
the engine starts.
