8. Operation

It is very dangerous to run a chainsaw
that mounts broken parts or lacks any
parts.
Before starting engine, make sure that
all the parts including bar and chain
are installed properly.

STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Fill fuel and chain oil tanks

respectively, and tighten the caps
securely. (F7)

2. Set the switch to “I” position. (F8)

(1) Chain oil
(2) Fuel
(3) Switch
(4) Throttle lever
(5) Throttle interlock

3. Pull out the choke knob to the second-

stage position. The choke will close
and the throttle lever will then be set in
the starting position [F10-(a)].

(6) Choke knob

When restarting immediately after
stopping the engine, set the Choke knob
in the first-stage position (choke open and
throttle lever in the starting position).

Once the choke knob has been pulled
out, it will not return to the operating
position even if you press down on it with
your finger. When you wish to return the
choke knob to the operating position, pull
out the throttle lever instead.

Do not start the engine while the chain

dangerous.

the choke knob to the first-stage

throttle lever pulled slightly.

Keep clear of the saw chain as it will
start rotatIng upon starting of engine.

CHECKING THE OIL SUPPLY

Make sure to set up the bar and the
chain when checking the oil supply.
If not, the rotating parts may be
exposed. It is very dangerous.

After starting the engine, run the chain at
medium speed and see if chain oil is
scattered off as shown in the figure. (F12)

(1) Chain oil

The oil tank should become nearly empty
by the time fuel is used up. Be sure to
refill the oil tank every time when refueling
the saw.
