Starting the Engine

IMPORTANT!!

Engine ignition is controlled by a two position switch mounted on the throttle housing labeled, “I” for ON or START and “O” for OFF or STOP.

WARNING!

Never start the engine from the operating position.

1.Slide the ignition switch to the “ON” position.

2.Set the throttle lever to the “fast idle”:

a.Squeeze the throttle lever toward the handgrip on the shaft tube.

b.Depress and hold the throttle lock button.

c.While depressing the throttle lock button, release the throttle lever.

3.Press the primer bulb until fuel can be seen flowing in the transparent return tube.

4.Set the choke lever to the CLOSED position if engine is cold.

IMPORTANT!

The primer system only pushes fuel through the carburetor. Repeatedly pressing the primer bulb will not flood the engine with fuel.

5.While holding the outer tube firmly with left hand. Use your other hand to slowly pull the recoil starter han- dle until resistance is felt, then pull quickly to start the engine.

CAUTION!

Do not pull the recoil starter to the end of the rope travel. Pulling the recoil starter to the end of the rope travel can damage the starter.

When the Engine Starts...

■■After the engine starts, open the choke (if it is not already open) by moving the choke lever down. Allow the engine to warm up at idle 2 or 3 minutes before operating the unit.

■■Advancing the throttle makes the

cutting attachment turn faster; releasing the throttle permits the attachment to stop turning.
