THROTTLE LEVER

The THROTTLE LEVER is used to select the desired engine speed and to stop the engine.

Move the throttle lever to the

position for

full speed operation. Move the throttle lever

to the position for idle speed. To stop the engine, move the throttle lever to the STOP position.

PRIMER BUTTON

The PRIMER BUTTON removes air from the carburetor and fuel lines and fills them with fuel. This allows you to start the engine with fewer pulls on the starter rope. Activate primer button by pressing it and allowing it to return to its origi- nal position.

The CHOKE helps to supply fuel to the engine to aid in cold starting. Activate the choke by moving the choke lever to the FULL CHOKE position. After engine attempts to start, move the choke lever to the HALF CHOKE position. Once engine starts, move choke lever to the RUN position.
