Function of stop switch and ignition system
The stop switch is normally in the run position: Ignition is on in this position - the engine is ready to start and
may be started. The ignition is switched off when the stop switch is depressed. It is automatically switched on
again after the engine comes to a standstill.
Symbols on choke knob
• Start ▲: the engine is started in this position.
• Normal run position I : engine runs or can fire.
Start the engine
• Press the fuel pump bulb (Pos. 4) at least five times. Even if the bulb is filled with fuel.
• Depress in the outer edge (arrows) of the choke knob (Pos. 5) and then turn it to start
▲.
• Hold the starter grip with your hand.
• Do not pull out the starter rope all the way - it might otherwise break!
• Do not let the starter grip snap back. Guide it slowly back into the housing so that the
starter rope can rewind properly.
• Continue cranking until the engine runs.
As soon as the engine runs: Make sure the engine runs smoothly.
If the engine stalls: continue cranking until the engine runs.

After a cold start, allow the engine to warm up in the start ▲ position.
If you have started the machine for the first time, refer to the notes on “starting for first time”.
• Depress throttle trigger lockout and pull the throttle trigger - the choke knob moves
to the run I position.
If the spindle rotates when the engine is idling, refer to notes in chapter “adjusting the throttle cable” or have the
machine serviced by your dealer.
Starting for first time
• Depress the throttle trigger - do not press down the throttle trigger lockout.
If engine speed increases or the cutting attachment rotates:
• Go to section “stopping the engine“.
• Go to chapter ”adjusting the throttle cable“.
If the engine speed does not increase, your machine is ready for operation.
Attention: The spindle must not rotate in the run I position with the engine at idling speed!
