the PREHEAT position for a few seconds.

 

 

Turn the key switch clockwise to the RUN po-

”, 

then release 

key switch, and warm up the engine at idle 

speed of 1,000 RPM for 5 to 10 minutes.

 

 

Shut the engine down to prepare for loading 

and lighting (see pages 16

-

18 for loading and 

lighting instructions).  

The fan is direct drive, 

so leaving the engine running during light-

ing will make it more difficult to light.

ied as required by turning the speed control 

knob clockwise to decrease, counter clock-
