2.Press the primer bulb until fuel can be seen flowing in the transparent return tube.

IMPORTANT!

The primer system only pushes fuel through the carburetor. Repeatedly press- ing the primer bulb will not flood the engine with fuel.

3.Set the choke lever to the CLOSED position if engine is cold.

Closed

4.While holding the outer tube firmly with one hand, slowly pull the recoil starter handle until resistance is felt, then pull quickly to start the engine.

Make sure the

cutting attachment is clear of obstructions!

CAUTION!

Do not pull the recoil starter to the end of the rope travel. Pulling the recoil starter to the end of the rope travel can damage the starter.

Open

5.When the engine starts, slowly move the choke lever to the “OPEN” posi- tion. (If the engine stops after the initial start, close the choke and restart.)

WARNING!

The cutting blades may move when the engine is started. Keep away from the cutter assembly while starting the engine.

IMPORTANT!

If the engine fails to start after several attempts with the choke in the closed position, the engine may be flooded with fuel. If flooding is suspected, move the choke lever to the open position and repeatedly pull the recoil starter to remove excess fuel and start the engine. If the engine still fails to start, refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual.

WARNING!

Never start the engine from the operating position.

When the Engine Starts...

■After the engine starts, allow the engine to warm up at idle 2 or 3 minutes before operating the unit.

■After the engine is warm, pick up the unit and clip on the shoulder strap if so equipped.

■Advancing the throttle makes the cutting attachment turn faster; releasing the throttle permits the attachment to stop turning. If the cutting attachment continues to rotate when the engine returns to idle, carburetor idle speed should be adjusted (see “Adjusting The Engine Idle” on the next page).
