STARTING AND STOPPING
Before starting
Decompression valve: Press the valve to reduce the 
compression in the cylinder. The decompression valve should 
always be used when starting. The valve automatically 
returns to its initial position when the machine starts.
Stop switch: Make sure that the stop switch (STOP) is in the 
left position.
Start throttle position - cold engine: Start throttle position 
and choke is obtained by pulling out the choke completely.
Start throttle position - warm engine: The correct choke/
start throttle setting is obtained by pulling the choke control to 
the choke position and then pushing it in again. This only 
engages the start throttle setting without any choke.
Starting
Grip the front handle with your left hand. Put your right foot on 
the lower section of the rear handle pressing the machine 
against the ground. Never wrap the starter cord around 
your hand
Grip the starter handle, slowly pull out the cord with your right 
hand until you feel some resistance (the starter pawls grip), 
now quickly and powerfully pull the cord.
CAUTION! Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do 
not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended. 
This can damage the machine.
With a cold engine: Push in the choke control as soon as the 
engine fires and make repeated starting attempts.
When the engine starts, quickly apply full throttle to 
automatically disengage fast idle.
Stopping
Stop the engine by moving the stop switch (STOP) to the 
right.
!
WARNING! Note the following before 
starting:
Do not start the power cutter without the belt 
guard fitted. Otherwise the clutch could 
come loose and cause personal injuries.
Always move the machine away from the 
refuelling area before starting.
Ensure that you and the machine have a 
good working stance and that the cutting 
blade can rotate freely.
Keep people and animals well away from the 
working area.
!
WARNING! The cutting blade rotates when 
the engine is started. Make sure it can rotate 
freely.
