2. Starting procedure
2.1 You
can
hold
the
saw
in one of two ways
for starting:
Saw between
legs
Hold the rear handle tightly between your
legs, just
above
the knees.
Grip the front handle (5)
securely
with
your
left hand.
Saw on ground
Hold
the saw firmly on the ground
with
your left hand
on
the front handle (5).
Put
your
right foot into the rear
handle
(6) and press down.
2.2 Pull the starter grip
(7) slowly with your right hand until
you feel the starter
engage, then
give the grip
a
brisk
strong
pull (the engine will kick
back if
you
pull
too
slowly).
The starter rope
must not be pulled out more than
70 cm (about 28 in)
as it might otherwise break.
Do not
let the
starter
grip (7)
snap
back.
Guide it slowly
into the housing
so
that the
starter
rope can
rewing
properly.
