OPERATION
3. Turn the ignition switch key to the
ON position; the buzzer will sound
twice.
4. Turn the ignition switch key to the
START position and hold it there
until the engine starts.
When the engine starts, release the
key, allowing it to return to the ON
position.
If the engine fails to start within 5
seconds, release the key and wait at
least 10 seconds before operating
the starter again.
• Using the electric starter for
more than 5 seconds at a time
will overheat the starter motor
and can damage it.
• Turning the ignition switch key to
the START position while the
engine is running can damage
the starter motor and flywheel.
5. Before getting underway, allow the
engine to warm-up sufficiently to
ensure good performance.
Above 41°F (5°C), warm-up the
engine for at least 3 minutes.
Below 41°F (5°C), warm-up the
engine for at least 5 minutes at
2,000 rpm. Push the fast idle
button, and then move the control
lever forward or reverse to open the
throttle and achieve approximately
2,000 rpm.
