1. Move the ON/OFF-switch to ON-position. (Fig. 4A)
2. Pump the primer bulb (A) 6 times. (Fig. 4B)
3. The unit is designed with a three position choke: full choke
, partial choke = start and run .
Move the choke lever to full choke-position . (Fig. 4C)
4. Grip the handle firmly.
5. Pull the starter rope out a short way until resistance is felt (approximately 100 mm). A smooth rapid pull is
required for a strong spark. Pull the starter rope briskly 4 times. (Fig. 4D)
6. Move the choke lever to start-position . Let the engine run for 10 seconds to warm up and then press
the trigger. (Fig. 4E and 4F)
7. Move the choke lever to run-position
, the engine will run at racing speed. (Fig. 4G)
8. If engine fails to start, repeat steps 3 through 7.
NOTE:
If engine fails to start after repeated attempts, refer to “Troubleshooting” section.
NOTE:
Always pull the starter rope straight out. Pulling the starter at an angle will cause the rope to rub
against the eyelet. This friction will cause the rope to fray and wear quickly. Always hold the starter handle
when the rope retracts. Never let the rope snap back from extended position. This could cause the rope to
snag or fray and also damage the starter assembly.
Stopping the engine (Fig. 4H)
Emergency stopping procedure

Starting a warm engine
(engine has been stopped for no more than 15-20 minutes ago)

2. If engine does not start, or starts and then stops after 5 rope pulls, follow procedure in chapter “Starting a
