Cold Engine Starting Procedure

1. Toggle the ignition switch to the “ON” position and pull the choke lever out.

3. Depress and hold throttle lock button (C) while releasing the trigger and trigger interlock in succession.
4. Press decompression valve (D).
5. Open the water valve 1/4 turn.
6. Place the 613GC Cut-Off Saw on the ground making sure the chain is free of any obstructions.

10. Pull the starter cord (hard, fast, short pulls) until engine fires or “pops” – should be 1 to 7 pulls.
11. Push the choke lever in.
12. Check decompression valve. Press if necessary.
13. Pull the starter cord until engine starts – should be 1 to 2 pulls.

Warm Engine Starting Procedure

1. Use the same procedure as starting cold engine, but DO NOT pull choke lever out. If choke is used, the carburetor will flood with gas.

Note: To hold the trigger fully open it may be necessary to insert right foot into rear handle opening and twist.
