3. Push choke lever to “Choke” position.

4. Push engine rocker switch to “On”.

5.Grasp recoil handle and pull slowly until slight resistance is felt. Then pull handle rapidly to overcome compression, prevent kickback, and start engine.

•When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback.

•NEVER start or stop engine with electrical devices plugged in and turned on.

IMPORTANT: If excessive fuel is present in the air/fuel mixture causing a “flooded” condition, move the choke lever to “Run” ( ) position and pull the handle repeatedly until the engine starts.

6.Move choke lever to “Run” ( ) position a short distance at a time over several seconds in warm weather or minutes in cold weather. Let engine run smoothly before each change. Operate with choke in “Run” position.
