STARTING/STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Operate this unit only in a well- ventilated

outdoor area. Carbon monoxide exhaust fumes can be lethal in a confined area.

WARNING: Avoid accidental starting. Make sure

you are in the starting position when pulling the starter rope (Fig. 12). To avoid serious injury, the operator and unit must be in a stable position while starting.

STARTING INSTRUCTIONS

1.Check the oil level in the crankcase. Refer to Checking the Oil Level.

2.Fill the fuel tank with fresh, clean unleaded gasoline. Refer to Fueling the Unit.

3.Put the On/Off Stop Control in the ON [I] position (Fig. 10).

4.Place the choke lever in Position 1 (Fig. 11).

5.Fully press and release the primer bulb 10 times, slowly. Some amount of fuel should be visible in the primer bulb and fuel lines (Fig. 11). If you can’t see fuel in the bulb, press and release the bulb as many times as it takes before you can see fuel in it.

6.Hold the throttle and handlebar with one hand and grab the starter rope with your other hand. Use your foot to hold down the cultivator (Fig. 12).

NOTE: Tilt the unit back slightly to bring the tines off the ground when starting.

7.While squeezing the throttle control, pull the starter rope with a smooth and steady pull. Repeat this 5 times.

NOTE: The unit uses the Incredi-Pull™starting system , which significantly reduces the effort required to start the engine. You must pull the starter rope out far enough to hear the engine attempt to start. There is no need to pull the rope briskly-- there is no harsh resistance when pulling. Be aware that this starting method is vastly different from (and much easier than) what you may be used to.

8.Move the choke lever to Position 2.

9.While squeezing the throttle control, pull the starter rope in the same manner as explained in Step 7. Pull 1 to 3 times to start the engine.

10.Keep the throttle squeezed and allow the engine to warm up for 15 to 30 seconds.

11.Place the choke lever in Position 3. Release the throttle control to the idle position and begin operation.

IF... The engine does not start, repeat Steps 4 - 11.

IF... The engine fails to start after a few attempts, place

the choke lever in Position 3 and squeeze the throttle control. Pull the starter rope 3 to 8 times. The engine should start. If not, continue pulling starter rope until the engine starts.

IF WARM... If the engine is already warm, make sure the On/Off Stop control is in the ON position and start the unit with the choke lever in Position 2. After the unit starts, move the choke lever to Position 3.
