NOTICE
Keep choke in “CHOKE” position for only 1 pull of the recoil
starter. After first pull, move choke to the “RUN” position for
up to the next 3 pulls of the recoil starter. Too much choke
leads to spark plug fouling/engine flooding due to the lack of
incoming air. This will cause the engine not to start.
"
NOTICE
For gasoline restarts with hot engine in hot ambient > 30°C
(86°F), keep the choke in 75% of the “CHOKE” position for
only 1 pull of the recoil starter. After first pull, move choke
to the “RUN” position for up to 3 more pulls of the recoil
starter. Too much choke leads to spark plug fouling/engine
flooding due to the lack of incoming air. This will cause the
engine not to start.

NOTICE
For gas starting in cold ambient <15°C (59°F) the choke
must be in 100% of the “CHOKE” position for recoil start
procedures. Do not over-choke. As soon as engine starts,
gradually move the choke lever to the “RUN” position over a
2-5 second duration.
