•

Make sure the throttle control is locked at the idle 
setting when the throttle lockout is released. (95)

•

Press the throttle lockout and make sure it returns to 
its original position when you release it. (96)

•

Check that the throttle control and throttle lockout 
move freely and that the return springs work properly. 
(97)

•

Start the chain saw and apply full throttle. Release the 
throttle control and check that the chain stops and 
remains stationary. If the chain rotates when the 
throttle control is in the idle position you should check 
the carburetor idle adjustment.

Check that the chain catcher is not damaged and is firmly 
attached to the body of the chain saw. (98)

Check that the right hand guard is not damaged and that 
there are no visible defects, such as cracks. (11)

Regularly check the vibration damping units for cracks or 
deformation. Make sure the vibration damping units are 
securely attached to the engine unit and handle unit. (99)

Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when 
you move the stop switch to the stop setting. (53)

NB! The start/stop switch automatically returns to run 
position. In order to prevent unintentional starting, the 
spark plug cap must be removed from the spark plug 
when assembling, checking and/or performing 
maintenance. 

Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.

Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to 
the machine. (100)

Some mufflers are equipped with a special spark arrestor 
screen. If your machine has this type of muffler, you 
should clean the screen at least once a week. This is best 
done with a wire brush. A blocked screen will cause the 
engine to overheat and may lead to serious damage.

Note! The screen must be replaced if it is damaged. If the 
screen is blocked the machine will overheat and this will 
cause damage to the cylinder and piston. Never use a 
machine with a muffler that is in poor condition. Never 
use a muffler if the spark arrestor screen is missing 
or defective. (13)

The muffler is designed to reduce the noise level and to 
direct the exhaust gases away from the operator. The 
exhaust gases are hot and can contain sparks, which may 
cause fire if directed against dry and combustible 
material.

•

Loosen the screws that hold the starter against the 
crankcase and remove the starter. (101)

•

Pull out the cord approx. 30 cm and hook it into the 
notch in the rim of the pulley. Release the recoil spring 
by letting the pulley rotate slowly backwards. (102)

•

Undo the bolt in the centre of the pulley and remove 
the drive disc (A), drive disc spring (B) and the pulley 
(C). Insert and secure a new starter cord in the starter 
pulley. Wind approx. 3 turns of the starter cord on the 
starter pulley. Fit the starter pulley so that the end of 
the recoil spring  (D) hooks into the starter pulley. Now 
assemble the drive disc spring, drive disc and the bolt 
in the centre of the pulley. Carry the starter cord 
through the hole in the starter housing and the starter 
handle. Tie a good knot on the starter cord. (103)
