ON/STOP SWITCH
The ON/STOP switch is located on the trigger handle and is used to stop the engine. To stop the engine, push and release the engine ON/ STOP switch.
PRIMER BULB
The PRIMER BULB removes air from the car- buretor and fuel lines and fills them with fuel. This allows you to start the engine with fewer pulls on the starter rope. Activate the primer bulb by pressing it and allowing it to return to its original form.
