start, pull the choke knob to the CLOSED position.

time will be required for warmup.

seconds or until the engine starts.

the motor. If the enginefails to start, release the switch and wait
10 seconds before operating the starter again.

indication that the battery should be recharged.

position.

engine, push the choke knob to the OPEN position as the engine
warms up.

switch to the ON position after the engine has warmed up for 2 or 3
minutes.
