If the lawn mower is being started for the first time press on
the fuel pump five times. After that you should press on the
fuel pump three times when starting a cold engine.
Warm engine
If the engine is warm you do not generally need to press the
fuel pump. If the engine has stopped because the petrol has
run out, fill with fuel, and press three times on the fuel pump.
Starting
Ensure the ignition lead sits correctly on the spark plug.
On the M53 S model disengage the drive on the wheel by
moving the clutch lever forward.
Pull the engine brake handle against the upper handlebar
with your left hand.
Grip the starter handle, slowly pull out the cord with your right
hand until you feel some resistance (the starter pawls grip),
now quickly and powerfully pull the cord.
Never twist the starter cord around your hand.
CAUTION! Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do
not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended.
This can damage the machine.
