5 STARTING 

UP 

5.1 

Fuel and oil: 

1. 

The engine of the power scythe is a 2-stroke en-
gine. For operation, it requires a mixture of normal 
unleaded petrol and 2-stroke oil in a ratio of 25:1 
(see fuel mixture table). 

2. 

It is advisable to mix a maximum of 5 litres of 
petrol/oil mixture, since this quantity will give you 
approx. 12-15 operational hours and an older pet-
rol/oil mixture does not guarantee the optimum 
level of lubrication.  

Never use pure petrol for your appliance. 
Otherwise there is a danger of causing per-
manent damage to the engine and as a result 
the manufacturer's guarantee would not ap-
ply. Do not use any petrol/oil mixture which 
has been kept for longer than 90 days. 

Only use a petrol/oil mixture in a mixing ratio 
of 25:1.  Do not change the mixing ratio of 
your own accord even if some types of 2-
stroke oil recommend a different mixing ratio.

Starting the engine: 

Important

: You must first read the instructions for star-

ting the engine from a cold and a warm state, and then 
carry out the appropriate start procedure. Place the 
appliance on a hard, level surface, hold it by the han-
dle with one hand and pull the starting handle on the 
tension cable with the other hand.  

Important

: In order to keep the load on the engine as 

small as possible during start-up and warm-up, cut the 
excess cutting line back to 13cm. 

5.2.1 

Starting the engine from a cold state 

1. 

Set the ignition switch (1) to the "Start" position. 

2.  Secure the throttle lever: Press the "Lock off” 

switch (2) downward. Then, at the same time, 
press the throttle lever (3) and slide the locking 
switch (4). The throttle lever locks into place on 
full throttle. 

3. 

The appliance has a choke, which can been set in 
2 positions: "CHOKE" ( ) and "RUN" ( ). Set the 
choke lever to "CHOKE" ( ). 

4. 

For starting purposes, spray fuel into the carburet-
tor. Press the pad ten times. 

5. 

Pull the starting cable out by a short amount, until 
you feel resistance (approx. 10cm). For a strong 
ignition spark, a smooth, sharp pull is required. 
Pull the starting cable four times quickly and 
forcefully. 

6. 

Set the choke lever to "RUN" ( ). 

7. 

If the engine does not start up, repeat steps 1 to 
6. 

PLEASE NOTE: 

If the engine does not start up even 

after several attempts, read the section "Engine Trou-
bleshooting”. 

PLEASE NOTE: 

Always pull the starting cable out in a 

straight line. If it is pulled out at an angle, then friction 
will occur on the eye. As a result of this friction, the 
cable will become frayed and will wear away faster. 
Always hold the starter handle when the cables re-
tracts. Never allow the cable to snap back when it has 
been pulled out. This would fray or wear the cable and 
also damage the starter unit. 

5.2.2 

Starting the engine from a warm state 

1. 

Set the ignition switch to the "Start” position. 

2. 

Set the choke lever to the "RUN" ( ) position. 

3. 

Lock the throttle lever as described under Point 2 
of "Starting the engine from a cold state”. 

4.  Pull the starter cable quickly, until the engine 

starts up. However, do not pull the cable more 
than 6 times. Hold down the throttle lever FULLY, 
until the engine is running quietly. If the engine 
does not want to start, set the choke to "RUN" ( ) 
and pull 5 more times on the starter cable. How-
ever, should the engine not start, then it is proba-
bly fully-pumped with petrol. Wait 5 minutes and 
then try it again with the choke set to "RUN" ( ) 
and with a fully depressed throttle lever.
