Fuel Tank Cap, Vent Lever, and Choke
The fuel tank cap is provided with a vent lever to seal the fuel tank, as shown below.
The vent lever must be in the ON position for engine to run.
When starting a cold engine, temporarily set the choke lever CLOSED to enrich the air/fuel
mixture. Gradually OPEN the choke lever as the engine warms up.
When the engine is not in use, leave vent lever in the OFF position to reduce the possibility of
fuel leakage. Allow engine to cool before turning the vent lever to the OFF position to preclude
pressure buildup in the fuel tank.
