A. Recoil Starter
Turn engine switch to the ON position (see Figures 16 and 17). Remove slack
from starter rope by lightly pulling starter grip. Next, pull starter rope briskly.

Do not let starter grip snap back against engine. Return it gently.
This will prevent damage to starter.

necessary. Be sure engine is on a level surface. See oil alert system, page 9.

Turn the engine switch to the START position (see Figure 17). Hold it there
until engine starts. When engine starts, let switch return to the ON position.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use electric starter more than five seconds. Starter
motor damage may occur. If engine fails to start, release the switch and wait
ten seconds. After ten seconds, try starting again.
Note:
If engine does not start, check the oil in the crankcase. Add oil as
necessary. Be sure engine is on a level surface. See oil alert system, page 9.
