9.1.2 Starting the motor when warm
(The device stood still for less than 15-20 min-
utes)
m WARNING
Engage the chain brake before every start-up (push
the hand guard (1) forward).
• Push the front hand guard (1) forwards until it latch-
es into place. The saw chain (17) is clamped by the
chain brake.
• Switch the ON/OFF switch (6) to "ON".
• The cold start lever (choke) (8) does not have to be
pulled to start a warm engine.
• Place the tip of your shoe in the rear hand guard
(12) (see fig. C).
• Hold the chainsaw firmly by the front handle (2) and
pull the start pull cord (4) out slowly until you feel
the first resistance.
• Now pull the start pull cord (4) quickly. The device
should start after 1-2 pulls. If the device has still not
started after 6 pulls, repeat the process described
under "Starting the engine when cold".
9.2 Shutting the engine off
9.2.1 Emergency stop procedure
If it is necessary to stop the device immediately, set
the ON/OFF switch (6) to "OFF".
9.2.2 Normal procedure
• Release the throttle (10). The engine goes into idle
speed.
• Then set the ON/OFF switch (6) to "OFF".
9.3 Operating while idle
m ATTENTION
When idling, the saw chain (17) must be stationary. If
the saw chain (17) moves, adjust the idle speed!
NOTE
If the saw chain (17) moves at idle or the engine stops
on its own when the throttle is released, a carburettor
adjustment must be made (see chapter "Maintenance
of the carburettor settings").
• Pick up the chainsaw.
• Use the left hand to hold the front handle (2) firmly.
• Use the right hand to hold the rear handle (11) firm-
ly. The heel of the hand rests on the throttle inter-
lock (9) and the index finger operates the throttle
lever (10) (see fig. D).
• After actuating the throttle lever (10) once, the en-
gine runs at idle speed.
• Allow the engine to warm up briefly.
9.4 Checking and adjusting chain lubrication
m ATTENTION
• Never work without chain lubrication! If the saw
chain runs dry, the set of blade and saw chain will
be irreparably destroyed in a short time.
• Always check chain lubrication before working.
Note
Only use saw chain oil, preferably biodegradable. Do
not use waste oil, engine oil, etc.
Check during work that the chain lubrication is working.
Hold the chainsaw during operation, at medium
speed, over a sawed-off tree stump or a suitable sur-
face. If the lubrication is sufficient, a light film of oil will
form on the tree stump or surface (see fig. E).
• If necessary, the chain lubrication can be increased
or decreased by means of the oil adjustment screw
(19).
• Use the slotted screwdriver (31) supplied to help:
- First press and then turn the oil adjustment screw
(19) clockwise to reduce chain lubrication.
- First press and then turn the oil adjustment screw
(19) anti-clockwise to increase chain lubrication.
9.5 Checking the chain brake
m WARNING
The chain brake must be checked before each use.
The chain brake brakes the saw chain immediately in
the event of kick-back.
• Make sure that the front hand guard (1) is free of dirt
and moves easily.
• Start the chainsaw as described under 9.1 and ac-
celerate the saw chain to full speed (full throttle).
• With the saw chain running, operate the front hand
guard (1). The chain brake must brake and lock the
saw chain at max. speed.
m WARNING
Increased engine speed for too long with the chain
brake locked will damage the engine and the chain
drive.
If the saw chain (17) still moves, contact the customer
service.
