8.If the engine does not start, repeat steps 1 through 7 or consult the troubleshooting guide contained in this manual.

9.Let the engine warm for 3 to 5 minutes before using roller. Check for fuel and oil leaks, and noises that would associate with a loose guard and/or covers.

10.If necessary, return the choke knob to the full OPEN position.

NOTICE

The CLOSED position of the choke knob enriches the fuel mixture for starting a COLD engine. The OPEN position provides the correct fuel mixture for normal operation after starting, and for restarting a warm engine.
