Starting
The Raider 50 has three starting capabilities.
a) Primary is manual pull start. This method simply uses the pull start located at the
top of the Raider.
b) Secondary starting is the “push button” which engages the battery. If the battery
is dead if you start the Raider it will recharge in minutes.
c) Third method is emergency only. In the tool kit (BII) are tools that allow the pull
starter (a) to be removed. In the BII you will find a rope that can be wound around
fly wheel to manually start the Raider 50.
