Hi steve the trick to starting that saw goes like this cold start on choke pull till you here the pop then move the switch a half step down that's high idle there are 4 stages to that switch when warm start at the half step down from choke hope that helps
You shouldn't even own a chain saw till you learn how to fall a tree correctly,
I picked one up last Nov. and i have cut about 4 cords so fare and I m happy with it . Though its a bitch to start
