Operation

5. While pulling the throttle trigger with the

little finger of your left hand, pull the starter
rope. 

• Avoid pulling the rope to its end or returning

it by releasing the knob. Such actions can
cause starter failures. 

6. When the engine has started, move the

choke lever gradually downward to open
the choke. 

7. Allow the engine to warm up for a half

minute before starting operation. 

1. When restarting the engine immediately

after stopping it, leave the choke open. 

2. Overchoking can make the engine hard to

start due to excess fuel. When the engine
failed to start after several attempts, open
the choke and repeat pulling the rope, or
remove the spark plug and dry it.
