You should always use the decompression valve when starting the machine. Once the machine has started the valve will automatically return to its original setting. !

Never start a chain saw unless the bar, chain and all covers are fitted correctly. Make sure you have a secure footing and that the chain cannot touch anything. Keep people and animals well away from the working area. Warm engine Use the same procedure as for starting a cold engine but without setting the choke control in the choke position. The correct choke/start throttle setting is obtained by moving the choke control to the choke position and then pushing it in again. Cold engine H Starting: The chain brake must be engaged when the chain saw is started. Activate the brake by moving the front hand guard forwards.
