Hints for starting a chain saw:
When starting a cold engine only keep the choke closed
until the engine begins to fire. Then open choke fully -
choke lever away
from"
Choke" - even if the engine stops
and you have to repeat the starting procedure.
If
the choke
is
left closed, the combustion chamber will flood and stall
the engine.
If you opened the choke after the engine fired and the
engine
still does not run after several attempts,
it
is
already
flooded.
In
such a case, remove and dry off the spark plug.
Clear the combustion chamber by cranking the engine
over several times on the starter with the spark plug re-
moved.
T'he
stop switch
should""'-be
off (move to
"Stop")
and the throttle in starting throttle position during this
process:
At very low outside temperatures do not open the choke
fully immediately after starting. First allow engine to warm
up for a brief period with very little throttle (release). Then
release throttle trigger and open the choke.
A new engine or one which has been run until the fuel tank
is
dry will not start first time after refueling because the
carburetor's diaphragm pump has to be primed with fuel by
cranking the engine over several times on the starter.
