Stopping the engine

Release the throttle trigger, and then press down the combination switch to lower

(O) position.

The combination switch reverts to (I) position automatically. The engine stops with

this switch off, but is ready to start.

To cut off the ignition current, push the combination switch all the way down past the

resistance point to lock it at (O) position.

Adjusting idle speed

WARNING:

• Do not adjust idle speed before the chain saw is completely assembled and

checked.

• If the saw chain still moves at idle speed even after adjustment, stop using the

chain saw immediately, and bring it to Makita authorized service center for repair.

CAUTION:

• Do not adjust the screws (H) and (L) in the illustration.

If the saw chain moves in idle without pulling throttle trigger, it is necessary to adjust

the idle speed.

Adjust the idle speed as follows:

1. Start and warm up the engine for two or three minutes, but do not drive the

engine at high speed.

2. To reduce the idle speed, turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise.

3. To increase the idle speed, turn the adjusting screw clockwise.

4. Make sure the saw chain does not move at idle speed.

Prevention from carburetor icing

NOTICE:

• When environmental temperature is higher than 5°C, always return the shutter

to normal (sun mark) setting. Otherwise the engine may be damaged by

overheating.

When the environmental temperature is low (0°C - 5°C) and humidity is high, water

vapor may freeze inside the carburetor and the engine drives unsteadily (carburetor

icing). Change the setting of the shutter as follows if necessary.

1. Open the cleaner cover.

2. Pull out the shutter.

3. Set the shutter in anti-icing position (snow mark).

4. Return the cleaner cover.
