8.
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).
9. 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. (Carburetor
model)
· If the engine does not start on the first try, repeat Procedure 3 and 4, and try again. (EFI model)
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.
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.
