Choke Lever
Use the choke lever (Figure 16) to start a cold engine. Before
pulling the recoil-start handle, move the choke lever to the
closed position. Once the engine is running, move the choke
lever to the open position. Do not use the choke if the engine
is already warmed up or the air temperature is high.
Throttle Lever
The throttle lever (Figure 16) controls the speed (rpm) of the
engine. It is located next to the choke lever. It sets the engine
speed and therefore can increase and decrease the rotation
speed of the mixing paddles. For best performance, set this
control to the fast position when mixing material.
Engine On/Off Switch
The On/Off switch (Figure 17) allows the operator of the
machine to start and stop the engine. This switch is located
on the front of the engine. Rotate the On/Off switch to the
On position to start and run the engine. Rotate the On/Off
switch to the Off position to stop the engine.

To start the engine, pull the recoil-start handle (Figure 15)
quickly to turn the engine over. The engine controls described
above must all be set correctly for the engine to start.
Oil-level Switch
The oil-level switch is located inside the engine, and it will
not allow the engine to run in the event the oil level is below
the safe operating limit.
