2. Lightly depress the kickstarter until resistance is
felt. Then let it return to the top of its stroke.
With the throttle slightly open, operate the
kickstarter. Kick from the top of the stroke to the
bottom with a fast, continuous motion.
Never run the engine in an enclosed area. The
exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas
that can cause loss of consciousness and lead to
death.
NOTE
•
Do not open the throttle repeatedly. Otherwise the
engine will be flooded with excessive fuel.
•
The electrical system is designed to prevent starting
the engine with the transmission in gear, unless the
clutch is operated. Shift the transmission into neutral
before starting the engine.
Preliminary Operations
Insert the key in the ignition switch and turn it to the
ON position.
Before starting, check the following items:
•
The transmission is in neutral (neutral indicator light
(green) is on).
•
The fuel cock is on.
