At very low outside temperatures
N Change over to winter operation if
necessary – see “Winter Operation”.
Stopping the engine
N Move the Master Control lever in the
direction of STOP or † – when
released, the Master Control lever
springs back to the normal run
position F.
If the engine does not start
N Check that all settings are correct.
N Check that there is fuel in the tank
and refuel if necessary.
N Check that the spark plug boot is
properly connected.
N Repeat the starting procedure.
or:
It is possible that the fuel-air mixture in
the combustion chamber is over-rich
and has flooded the engine.
N Remove the spark plug – see
"Spark Plug".
N Dry the spark plug.
N Hold the saw on the ground.
N Push the Master Control lever as far
as stop in direction of STOP or †
and hold it there.
WARNING
An ignition spark may occur if the Master
Control lever is not held against STOP
or †.
N Operate the rewind starter several
times.
N Release the Master Control lever – it
springs back to the run position F.
N Install the spark plug – see "Spark
Plug".
N Hold and start your saw as
described.
During the break-in period
A factory new machine should not be run
at high revs (full throttle off load) for the
first three tank fillings. This avoids
unnecessarily high loads during the
break-in period. As all moving parts
have to bed in during the break-in
period, the frictional resistances in the
shortblock are greater during this period.
The engine develops its maximum
power after about 5 to 15 tank fillings.
During work
NOTICE
Open the throttle only when the chain
brake is off. Running the engine at high
revs with the chain brake engaged
(chain locked) will quickly damage the
engine and chain drive (clutch, chain
brake).
Check chain tension frequently
A new saw chain must be retensioned
more frequently than one that has been
in use already for an extended period.
Chain cold
Tension is correct when the chain fits
snugly against the underside of the bar
but can still be pulled along the bar by
hand. Retension if necessary – see
"Tensioning the Saw Chain".
