Looks like some over reactions may be present in this thread. The choke/run lever has no “lock” position. Pic is referencing the round button that shows a lock/unlock position. Turns out it’s to be operated via the wrench/screw driver tool. Scrench. MAGA

On my phone. I thought you were making a joke with a pic of the air cleaner cover. Then I blew it up a bit. Does it take an actual key? A screwdriver? Or a knurled knob? It's the top cover lock... The chain bar kickback safety lever is the only chain lock. No key required. I was wondering when someone would figure it out! Okay, the padlock icons were enough to fool me. My 20 year old Stihl looks much like that, except, that knob is knurled on the top end and threaded on the bottom. People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.
