Starting the product depends on whether the engine is cold or warm.
Starting the Product
The recoil starter can be damaged by abuse.
Never pull the starter cord to its full length.
Always engage the starter before cranking the engine.
Always rewind the starter cord slowly.
Never operate the machine if the tubes are missing or damaged.
To Start a Cold Engine
Follow these steps to start a cold engine:
1.
Lay the product on a flat bare surface.
2.
Push the primer bulb repeatedly until fuel
comes into the primer pump. For new
engines or engines that have been refueled
this may require numerous attempts.
3.
Pull the choke control to the fully extended
position (choke is closed).
4.
Holding the machine handle firmly with
your right hand, pull the starter cord slowly
until you feel the starter engage.
5.
Start the machine by pulling the starter cord
upward rapidly. If necessary, repeat Step 5
two or three times until the engine starts.
NOTE:
When starting the engine for the first
time, or after refueling, it may take longer for
the fuel to reach the engine and become
operational. You may need to repeat the steps
several times in order to start the engine. If the
engine will not start after repeated attempts,
you should open the throttle and choke fully,
and continue pulling the starter cord until the
motor starts, making sure there is no danger of
persons approaching the head while starting.
WARNING:
Operating the machine with loose, missing or damaged components could allow the
engine to over-speed, possibly causing serious engine damage.
Inspect the entire machine for damage, loose or missing components or fastenings and
repair as necessary.
