When you are ready to start the Gasoline Chain Saw, find a clear and stable area away from debris and other potential hazards. Hold the saw firmly with both hands, ensuring that your right hand grasps the rear handle and your left hand holds the front handle. Place the saw on the ground, with the bar and chain facing away from you and any bystanders. Engage the chain brake and pull the starter cord slowly until you feel resistance, then pull it briskly to start the engine.
