. Check to make sure the V-belt is properly tensioned.
. Make sure the saw is free of oil spillage.
. Make sure the main cover and the handles are dry and clean.
. Do not attempt to start the saw if damage is found or if it’s not completely and
securely assembled and properly adjusted.
5. Precautions on starting:
. Keep a good balance and secure footing.
. Take hold of the starter grip firmly; do not wrap the rope around your hand.
. To start, place the machine firmly against
the ground and make sure the blade is not
in contact with the ground or the object to
be cut.
. Pull sharply on the rope and guide it back
slowly. Do not let go of the grip halfway
through the pull to prevent it from
snapping back.
