Kick down hard on the kick start, releasing immediately (failure to remove your foot from the kick start can damage the starting
mechanism). Where the model has an electric start, push the starter button until the engine has started (do not hold down the
button for more than 5 seconds at a time as this may damage the battery).
Twist the throttle to keep the revs of the engine up whilst the engine reaches optimum operating temperature.
Once the engine is at running temperature, turn the choke handle all the way down (closed position)
PLEASE NOTE:
Warm up the engine for 3-5mins prior to each usage. Over revving the engine is harmful to the engine, especially
when cold. The running in of the engine is considered to be for the first 500km, during this time avoid steep inclines and high
speeds. Avoid over revving the engine at all times.
Turning off the engine

Turn the kill switch into the
“OFF”
position, followed by the key ignition.
Set the fuel tap into the
“OFF”
position.
PLEASE NOTE:
In an emergency release the throttle, hold in the clutch and turn “OFF” the kill switch. Slow down as quickly as is
safe to do so.
