the belt slackener lever (P/N 167-2).

handle with your left hand.
3. Refer to your Engine Operator/Owner Manual for
Engine Starting Instructions.
4. Once the engine starts, slowly move the choke to the
run position and set the throttle control lever to desired
speed.
NOTE: A warm engine requires less choking than a cold
engine. The engine speed should be kept to the minimum
consistent with the job at hand. Speeds higher than
necessary will only cause undue wear and tear. A speed
half-way between “fast” and “slow” is normally adequate.
Tougher jobs may require higher speed.

2. Turn engine switch to OFF position.

right, which disengages lever from ratchet segment on
handle. Move lever forward or backward along ratchet
segment and insert key on lever into notch on ratchet
at the desired depth. Moving lever forward decreases
depth, moving lever backward increases depth.
