STARTING THE ENGINE
1. Turn the fuel valve (B, Figure 4) to the ON position.
2. Turn the On/Off switch (G) to the ON position.
3. Insert the engine key (E) into the engine key slot and
push fully in to the RUN position.
4. Fully close the choke (F) if engine is cold. (Do not
choke a warm engine.)
5. Push the primer button (D) two times if engine is cold.
(Do not prime a warm engine.)
6. Pull starter handle (C) rapidly, or push starter button
if equipped with the electric start. Do not allow the
starter handle to snap back--let the starter rope
rewind slowly--while keeping a firm grip on the
starter handle.
7. As the engine starts and begins to operate evenly,
open the choke (F) slowly. If the engine falters, turn
the choke knob clockwise until the engine runs
smoothly, and let it run briefly before returning the
choke to the OPEN position.
NOTE: The engine will not develop full power until it
reaches operating temperature.
