Starting And Stopping - Husqvarna 439 Manual De Instrucciones

Starting and stopping

WARNING! Note the following before
!
starting:
The chain brake must be engaged when
the chainsaw is started to reduce the
chance of contact with the moving chain
during starting.
Never start a chainsaw unless the bar,
chain and all covers are fitted correctly.
Otherwise the clutch can come loose and
cause personal injuries.
Place the machine on firm ground. Make
sure you have a secure footing and that
the chain cannot touch anything.
Keep people and animals well away from
the working area.
Never wrap the starter cord around your
hand.
Cold engine
Starting: The chain brake should be activated when
starting the chainsaw. Activate the chain brake by pushing
the front hand guard forwards.
Air purge: Press the air purge diaphragm repeatedly until
fuel begins to fill the diaphragm (about 6 times). The
diaphragm need not be completely filled.
Choke: Set the choke control in the choke position.
STARTING AND STOPPING
• Grip the front handle with your left hand. Put your right
foot on the lower section of the rear handle pressing
the machine against the ground.
• Pull the starter handle with your right hand and pull
out the starter cord slowly until you feel a resistance
(as the starter pawls engage) then pull firmly and
rapidly until the engine starts.
• Push in the choke control as soon as the engine fires
which can be heard through a "puff" sound. Keep on
pulling the cord powerfully until the engine starts.
Warm engine
Use the same starting procedure as for a cold engine but
without setting the choke control in the choke position.
• Grip the front handle with your left hand. Put your right
foot on the lower section of the rear handle pressing
the machine against the ground.
• Pull the starter handle with your right hand and pull
out the starter cord slowly until you feel a resistance
(as the starter pawls engage) then pull firmly and
rapidly until the engine starts.
NOTE! Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do
not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully
extended. This can damage the machine.
As the chain brake is still engaged the speed of the
engine must be set to idling as soon as possible, this is
achieved by quickly pressing the throttle trigger once.
