Move the choke lever to the HALF CHOKE position and pull the starter rope until the engine runs, but no more than 6 pulls. If the engine doesn’t start, repeat procedure 2 additional times.

NOTE: If engine still doesn’t start, it is probably flooded. Proceed to STARTING A FLOODED ENGINE.

9.Once the engine starts, allow it to run 10 se- conds, then move the choke lever to OFF CHOKE by aligning lever with position shown on decal (see illustration below). Al- low the unit to run for 30 more seconds at OFF CHOKE before releasing the throttle trigger.

3.Squeeze and hold the throttle trigger. Keep throttle trigger fully squeezed until the engine runs smoothly.

5.Allow engine to run 15 seconds, then move the choke lever to the OFF CHOKE position.

NOTE: If engine has not started, pull starter rope 5 more pulls. If engine still does not run, it is probably flooded.

STARTING A FLOODED ENGINE

Flooded engines can be started by placing the choke lever in the OFF CHOKE position; then, pull the rope to clear the engine of ex- cess fuel. This could require pulling the starter handle many times depending on how badly the unit is flooded.
