TO START THE ENGINE
Operate the engine stop lever: Use one hand to hold the engine
stop lever in the operating position firmly against the handlebar.
To start the engine and during operation of the mower, the engine
stop lever must be held in the operating position. If the engine
stop lever is released the engine will stop.
Operate the primer bulb: Note: Push on the primer bulb 5
times at two second intervals to provide the extra fuel to start the
engine after assembling the mower for the first time.
In normal use push on the primer bulb 3 times at 2 second inter-
vals to provide the extra fuel required to start a cold engine.
Operation of the primer bulb is usually unnecessary when start-
ing a warm engine.
IMPORTANT: Prevent engine damage. Never pull the engine start-grip when the
engine is running.
Operate the engine start - grip: Stand behind the mower and
maintain a firm hold on the handlebar and the engine stop lever
with your left hand to prevent the mower moving towards you.
Use your right hand to hold the engine start-grip and pull rapidly
to crank the engine. When the engine starts carefully return the
engine start - grip to the storage position. If the engine does not
start after 5 attempts - refer to "Fault Finding".
