When the machine starts, slowly turn the
choke clockwise towards position (RUN)
during a 2–3 minutes warm-up period.
Restarting a warm machine
Check that the choke is open (i.e. knob in
position RUN).
Pull the starter handle.
If the machine stops after a short while, or does
not start at all, follow the procedure for cold
starting.
If the machine does not start, it may have been
flooded (i.e. too much fuel in the combustion
chamber).
Open the choke (RUN position) and try starting
the engine again.
If the machine still does not start, see the section
entitled "Trouble shooting".
Number of revs
The engine speed is regulated by means of the
throttle lever:
Lever released – idling speed
Lever depressed – full engine speed
Ground probing
If the machine is started on top of long tools such
as probing rods, a starter-cord bracket must be
used to prevent the cord from damaging the fuel
tank.

machine is not to be used for a long period of
time.
