fuel-return tube [Fig. 19];
TP 36 H / TP 65 H / TP 110 H : Open the fuel valve [Fig. 20];
2. Put ON/OFF switch to ON (START) [Fig. 21];
3. Put the speed control [Fig. 22 or 23] to halfway [Fig. 24];
4. If the engine is cold, put the CHOKE LEVER to CHOKE (CLOSED) position [Fig. 25 or 26];
5. Slightly pull the Recoil starter rope until it becomes a bit difficult. This is the “compression” point.
Let the rope coil back to its initial position, then rapidly pull it [Fig. 27].
WARNING
□
Do not fully pull the rope out and do not suddenly release it. Handle it gently until it is reeled in.
•
If the engine does not start, although you have tried several times, start above operations but first
put the CHOKE LEVER to CHOKE (CLOSED) position. [Fig. 25 or 26]
NOTE
If the engine does not start, although you have tried several times, contact your IMER dealer or
the closest After Sales Service.

Once the engine has started:
1. Let the engine run, idle, for 3 minutes;
2. Put the CHOKE LEVER to RUN (OPEN) position [Fig. 28 or 29];
3. For self-priming, place speed control to fast position. [Fig. 30 or 31];
4. Adjust the pump flow using the accelerator lever..
