Well if you are asking this question then you should do it with the saw on the ground. Hold the top handle with your left hand. Put your right foot in the "hole" where the trigger is holding the back of the saw on the ground.
Then pull the handle. Make sure you have the saw set to run, full choke and the throttle locked wide open.
When the saw tries to fire the first time, set to half choke and it should start.
When it starts make sure the choke is all the way off. Then let it warm up a minute and go start cutting.
