Operating Instructions - Scheppach CSP2540 Traducción De La Instrucción De Original

• Grasp the rear handle (6) firmly in one hand and
hold the saw firmly against the ground. Press with
one knee on the rear handle.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The choke switch (14) is cou-
pled to the throttle lever (5). It will revert to its original
position automatically once the throttle lever (5) has
been pressed. If the throttle lever (5) is pressed be-
fore the engine starts, then the choke switch (14) will
have to be reset to the appropriate position.
Cold start Fig. 17.1/17.2
• Prime the fuel pump (4) by pressing it several times
until you can see fuel in the pump.
• Move the I/STOP-switch (15) forward in the direc-
tion of the arrow. Fig. 17.1.
• Turn the choke lever (5) up. This actuates the half-
throttle lock. Fig. 18.2.
• Slowly pull out the starter cable (8) until you notice
resistance (the piston is positioned before the top
dead center).
Now pull the starter cable with a fast and force-
ful movement until you hear the first ignition.
CAUTION!: Do not pull out the starter cable more
than approx. 50 cm, and lead it back by hand. For
efficient starting, it is important to pull the starter
cable quickly and powerfully.
• Turn the choke lever (14) down and pull the starter
cable again.
• As soon as the engine is running, grasp the rear
handle (6) (this actuates the grip safety (7) and tap
the throttle (5).
• This will release the half-throttle lock and the en-
gine will run in idle.
CAUTION!: The engine is to be run at idling speed
immediately after starting or damage may occur to
the chain brake.
• Now release the chain brake (3) (see section 7.6).
Warm starting
As for cold start, except before pulling the starter ca-
ble (8), turn the choke lever (14) briefly to the "Cold
start" position and then immediately back to "Warm
start" (this activates the half-throttle lock).
Important note: If the fuel tank has been complete-
ly emptied and the engine has stopped due to lack
of fuel prime the fuel pump (4) by pressing it several
times until you can see fuel in the pump.

8.3 Checking the chain brake Fig. 19
Do not work with the chain saw (3) without first
checking the chain brake!
• Start the engine as described (make sure you have
a good footing, and place the chain saw on the
ground in such a way that the guide bar is free of
contact).
• Grasp the tubular handle (6) firmly with one hand
and hold the grip (12) with the other.
• With the engine running at moderate speed, press
the hand guard (3) in the direction of the arrow with
the back of your hand until the chain brake engag-
es. The chain should stop immediately.
• Immediately release the throttle and release the
chain brake (3).
CAUTION!: If the chain does not stop immediately
in this test, do not under any circumstances proceed
with work. Contact a service center.

9. Operating instructions

m Important instructions
This chainsaw is a special type of saw that is special-
ly designed for tree care and tree surgery.
This chainsaw may only be operated one-handed
with corresponding training and if a carefully speci-
fied working technique is applied.
For all other applications, the chainsaw must be op-
erated with both hands like in the case of convention-
al chainsaws.
m Important notices
Exclusively use the device for sawing wood. Do not
work on metal, plastic, masonry and building materi-
als which are not made of wood.
Turn off the motor if the saw comes in contact with
foreign objects. Check the saw and, if applicable, re-
pair it.
Protect the chain from dirt and sand. Even small
quantities of dirt can quickly make the chain blunt and
increase the risk of kickback.
Start by cutting up smaller logs to practise in order
to get a feel for the device, before attempting diffi-
cult tasks.
Activate the throttle at maximum, before starting saw-
ing.
Press the casing of the chainsaw against the log
when starting sawing.
Run the device at full throttle throughout the whole
sawing process.
Let the saw do the work. Only use slight downwards
pressure.
Release the throttle as soon as you have finished
your work so the motor runs idle. If you let the ma-
chine run at full throttle without load, there will be un-
necessary wear and tear.
