engine when it is warm. Avoid over-chocking.
NATURAL GAS
ELECTRIC STARTING
When operating on NG, you will have to always use the
electric start to get the unit running. Because the engine
vacuum needs to activate the fuel system it is almost
impossible to manual start the unit using NG.
1. Check oil level, refill as needed.
2. Turn on the NG fuel supply.
3. NEVER use the choke when operating on NG.
4. Turn the engine switch to the ‘on’ position.
5. Operating the starter. Rotate the key switch briefly to
START position. The starter life is improved by using
shorter starting cycles with time to cool off between
cranking cycles. Do NOT operate the starter more
than 5 seconds and wait at least 10 seconds before
operating the starter again. Repeat cycle if necessary.
6. When the engine starts, release the key switch,
allowing it to return to the ‘on’ position.
7. The engine should promptly come up to operating
speed.
