COLD STARTING
THE DECOMPRESSOR
The engine is provided with a
decompression device for easy
starting of a cold engine. The
decompressor knob is located on top
of the engine as shown.
Before attempting to start, push the
knob DOWN fully. As soon as the
engine starts, the knob will
automatically reset.
Once started, allow the engine to run
briefly in order to warm up, then increase engine speed momentarily using the
throttle lever. The STOP/START switch will automatically revert to its central
position and the engine will idle.
THE CHOKE
In cold conditions the choke may be
used to aid starting.
Before attempting to start, move the
Choke Control lever towards the
CLOSED position shown. You may set
the lever to fully or partially closed,
depending upon conditions.
Once the engine has started and
warms up a little, the choke lever can
be returned to the normal OPEN
position with the engine settling at its idling speed.
