Using the Pull Start
Attach the glow plug igniter (not included) to the glow plug
and, if metered, make sure the needle is in the green or good
condition. Pull the start cord (no more than 4 or 5 inches)
firmly. The engine should start. If the engine does not turn over,
it is probably flooded. Use a glow plug wrench to loosen the
glow plug at least two turns and try again.
Raw fuel should come out around the plug. Tighten the plug
and resume starting procedure. Follow the engine break-in
procedure before attempting any racing or high-performance
operation. Use caution when adding fuel while the engine is
running. Do not over-fill or spill fuel outside the tank.
Slide the battery access panel opposite the hand strap back
and remove the cover. Remove hex starter shaft from the back
side of the cover (fig. 8B) and press the O-ringed end into
the drive cup. Slide a charged 7.2-volt 6-cell “stick pack” (not
included) into the Spin-Start and plug it in. Note that the
plug is made such that it can only be plugged in one way.
Carefully tuck the plug wires under the battery access panel
and slide shut.
