Safety Instructions Starting and Operating

6.1  To Start the Engine

Using the dipstick provided, 

check the engine oil level.  

Top up with SAE 10W/30 oil, 

API SJ or later, if the dipstick 

is clear of oil.

Check the fuel level.  Refill as 

necessary and as determined 

by the fuel tank type – see 

diagram.

Switch the engine ignition 

switch to the ON position.

Turn the fuel tap located 

on the engine carburetor 

to the ON position.  If the 

engine is cold or has not been 

operated recently set the 

choke lever on the carburetor 

to the ON position.

Pull the engine recoil handle slowly until it engages then pull hard and fast to start 

the engine.
After the start, guide the cord back into its position. Do not let it snap back.
Once the engine has started, if the choke lever has been used, return this to its OFF 

position after the engine has run for a few seconds.
