Kickstarter
If the engine fails to start by pushing the
start switch, try to start it by using the
kickstarter. To start the engine, fold out
the kickstarter lever, move it down light-
ly with your foot until the gears engage,
and then push it down smoothly but
forcefully. This model is equipped with
a primary kickstarter, allowing the en-
gine to be started in any gear if the
clutch is disengaged. However, shifting
the transmission into the neutral posi-
tion before starting is recommended.
