Before checking or refilling engine oil, be sure the
engine is located on stable, level surface and
stopped.

Do not screw the oil gauge into the oil filler
neck to check oil level. If the oil level is low,
refill to the upper level with the following
recommended oil.
■

-
w
)
(3) Close the choke lever. (See Fig.

-
e
)
■
■
If the engine is cold or the ambient
temperature is low, close the choke lever fully.
■
■
If the engine is warm or the ambient temperature
is high, open the choke lever half-way, or keep
it fully open.
(4) Pull the starter handle slowly until resistance is
felt. This is the “compression” point. Return the
handle to its original position and pull swiftly. Do
not pull out the rope all the way. After starting
the engine, allow the starter handle to return to
its original position while still holding the handle.
(See Fig.

(5) After starting the engine, gradually open choke
by turning the choke lever and finally keep it fully
opened. Do not fully open the choke lever
immediately when the engine is cold or the
ambient temperature is low, because the engine
may stop. (See Fig.

2. RUNNING
(1) After the engine starts, set the speed control lever
at
w
(low speed) position and warm it up without
load for a few minutes. (See Fig.

)
(2) Gradually move the speed control lever toward
e
(high speed) position and set it at the required
engine speed. (See Fig.

-
w
)
■
■
Whenever high speed operation is not required,
slow the engine down (idle) by moving the speed
control lever toward
w
(low speed) position to
save fuel and extend engine life.
3. STOPPING
(1) Set the speed control lever at
w
(low speed)
position and allow the engine to run at low speed
for 1 or 2 minutes before stopping. (See Fig.

)
(3) Close the fuel cock. (See Fig.
6
-
e
)
(4) Pull the starter handle slowly and return the
handle to its original position when resistance is
felt. This operation is necessary to prevent
outside moist air from intruding into the
