Original Instructions Version April 12
Before starting the engine
• Carefully check the area to make sure that no obstacles exist within a perimeter of 5 metres around the
chain saw before starting the engine.
• When starting the engine, place the body of the chain saw onto the ground in a at clear area and hold it
rmly in place to ensure that neither the blades nor the throttle come into contact with any obstacles when
the engine starts up.
• After starting the engine, make sure that the blades stop moving when the throttle trigger is released (idle).
If the blades continue to move when the engine is at idle, adjust the idle screw on the carburettor to a point
where the blades stop moving, if this cannot be achieved, turn o the engine and take the chain saw to your
authorised servicing dealer for adjustment.
• The chain brake must be engaged before starting the chainsaw. Apply the chain brake by pushing the front
hand guard forwards. (see page 14)
Fuel & Chain Oil
WARNING
• Fuel is very ammable. Do not smoke or bring any ame or sparks near fuel. Always stop the
engine and allow it cool before refuelling. Refuel outdoors on bare ground, restart engine at least
3m away from the refuelling stop.
FUEL MIX TWO-STROKE
The engine is lubricated by oil mixed into petrol. Prepare a mixture of unleaded petrol and only use semi-
synthetic two-stroke oil that meets the specications of: API TC, ISO-L-EGC, JASO FC (Low Smoke) oil.
Recommended mixing ratio is 40:1.
Use fresh, unleaded petrol (95 RON) and semi-synthetic oil specially made for high performance two-stroke
engines. Mix in a ratio of 40 parts petrol to 1 part of oil.
Using two-stroke oil specially made for two-stroke engines will reduce the formation of ash and carbon
deposits in the spark plug, piston, muer and cylinder as well as reducing emissions of harmful exhaust
gases. Lubrication will be maximized and the engine life extended.
