2.6 Warm up engine
1. After starting the engine, place the gear shift lever in neutral. For approximately the first 3 minutes after
starting, warm up the engine by operating at one fifth throttle or less. Otherwise, it will shorten engine life.
NOTE:
If the choke knob is left pulled out after the engine starts, the engine will stall.
In the temperatures of -5
℃
or less, leave the choke knob pulled out fully for approximately 30
seconds after starting.
2. Check for steady flow of water from the cooling water pilot hole.
CAUTION:
· If water is not flowing out of the hole at all times while the engine is running, stop the engine and
check whether the cooling water inlet on the lower case or the cooling water pilot hole is blocked.
· If the problem cannot be located and corrected, consult your dealer.
