STARTING AND STOPPING
Warm engine
Primer bulb: Press the air purge repeatedly until fuel begins to fill the bulb. The bulb need not be completely filled.
Starting
Hold the body of the machine on the ground using your left hand (CAUTION! Not with your foot!). Grip the starter handle, slowly pull out the cord with your right hand until you feel some resistance (the starter pawls grip), now quickly and powerfully pull the cord.
Push the choke control back to its original position as soon as the engine fires, and continue trying to start until the engine starts.
CAUTION! Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended. This can damage the machine.
Stopping
The engine is switched off by moving the stop switch to the stop position.
CAUTION! The stop switch automatically returns to the start position. In order to prevent unintentional starting, the spark plug cap must be removed from the spark plug when assembling, checking and/or performing maintenance.
