5. Pull the manual starter handle slowly until you feel resistance. Then give a strong pull straight to crank
and start the engine. Repeat if necessary.
Turn the main switch to “START” (start), and hold it for a maximum or 5 seconds (Electric start).
6. After the engine starts, slowly return the manual starter handle to its original position before releasing it.
Immediately release the main switch and allow it to return to “ON” (on) after the engine starts (Electric
start).
7. Slowly return the throttle grip to the fully closed position.
CAUTION
· When the engine is cold, it needs to be warmed up.
· If the engine does not start on the first try, repeat the procedure. If the engine fails to start after 4 or
5 tries, open the throttle a small amount (between 1/8 and 1/4), and try again.
NOTE:
Never turn the main switch to “START” (start) while the engine is running.
Do not keep the starter motor turning for more than 5 seconds. If the starter motor is turned
continuously for more than 5 seconds, the battery will be quickly discharged, thus making it
impossible to start the engine. The starter can also be damaged. If the engine will not start after 5
seconds of cranking, return the main switch to “ON” (on), wait 10 seconds, and then crank the
engine.
