Starting the Engine

IMPORTANT!

Engine ignition is controlled by a two position switch mounted on the throttle housing labeled, “I” for ON or START and “O” for OFF or STOP.

WARNING!

Never start the engine from the operating position.

1.Slide the ignition switch to the “ON” position.

2.Set the throttle lever to the “fast idle”:

a.Squeeze the throttle lever toward the handgrip on the shaft tube.

b.Depress and hold the throttle lock button.

c.While depressing the throttle lock button, release the throttle lever.

3.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.

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

5.While holding the outer tube firmly with left hand. Use your other hand to slowly pull the recoil starter handle until resistance is felt, then pull quickly to start the engine.

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.

WARNING!

The cutting attachment may move when the engine is started!

7.Operating the throttle will automatically disengage the fast idle setting.

IMPORTANT!

ŶAfter the engine starts, allow the engine to warm up at idle 2 or 3 min- utes before operating the unit.

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

ŶAdvancing the throttle makes the cutting attachment move faster; releasing the throttle permits the attachment to stop moving. If the cutting attachment con-

tinues to move when the engine returns to idle, carburetor idle speed should be adjusted (see “Adjusting Engine Idle”.).
