WARNING
The electrical cord can become damaged,
causing a shock or fire.
Thoroughly inspect the electrical cord before
using the machine. If the cord is damaged,
do not operate the machine. Replace or repair
the damaged cord immediately. Contact an
Authorized Service Dealer for assistance.
Important:
To prevent damaging the electric
starter, run it in short cycles (5 seconds
maximum, then wait one minute before trying
to start it again). If the engine still does not
start, take the machine to an Authorized Service
Dealer for service.
9. Disconnect the extension cord from the power outlet
first and then from the machine (electric start only).
10. Allow the engine to warm up for several minutes,
then move the choke toward the Run position. Wait
for the engine to run smoothly before each choke
adjustment.
