NOTE: On the Bearcat 570/T570
models when the engine is being
started with aid of the choke, DO
NOT COMPRESS THE THROTTLE
CONTROL LEVER. If the throttle con-
trol lever is compressed, the engine
will not start because the gas/air
mixture will be too lean. To start a
warm engine, however, the throttle
control lever may have to be com-
pressed slightly.
NOTE: On the Bearcat Z1 XT/TZ1
models when a cold engine is being
started, DO NOT COMPRESS THE
THROTTLE CONTROL LEVER. If the
throttle control lever is compressed,
the engine will not start because the
fuel/air mixture will be too lean.
7. On Bearcat 570/T570 models with
manual start, pull the recoil handle
slowly until resistance is felt; then
give a short quick pull. Repeat until
the engine starts.
NOTE: In extremely cold weather,
pull the recoil handle slowly two to
three times to begin the starting pro-
cedure.
NOTE: On electric start models,
rotate the key to the START position;
then when the engine starts, release
the key.
8. On the Bearcat 570/T570 models
when the engine starts, allow it to
warm up for approximately 30 sec-
onds with the choke lever in the full-
choke position. After the 30-second
warm-up, move the choke lever to
the middle position. The choke lever
should be moved to the OFF posi-
tion when engine is warm. Slight
throttle control lever compression
may be necessary after the engine
starts and during warm-up. Idle the
engine several minutes until the
engine has reached normal operating
temperature.
9. On the Bearcat Z1 XT/TZ1 models,
there is a “cold drive-away” function
incorporated within the engine. This
function is active until the engine
reaches operating temperature (see
Cold Drive-Away Function sub-sec-
tion in the General Information sec-
tion).
10. Flooding — On the Bearcat 570/
T570 models if the engine does not
start when the choke is being used
but seems ready to start, move the
choke lever to the OFF position.
Engage the brake lever lock; then
compress the throttle control lever
fully and try to start the engine.
When the engine starts, release the
throttle control lever immediately.
After the warm-up, release the brake
lever lock.
NOTE: Continued choking will
cause the engine to flood more.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the recoil starter,
DO NOT pull the recoil rope to its
limit or release the recoil handle
from an extended position. Allow the
rope to rewind slowly.
CAUTION
Do not continuously run the starter
for more than 5 seconds at a time.
CAUTION
It is extremely important that the
engine is properly warmed up before
subjecting the engine to high speed
operation or heavy loads. The
engine should be allowed to idle at
least 3-4 minutes before it is oper-
ated at more than 1/2 throttle. In
extremely cold conditions, the
warm-up time will be longer. Cold
seizure and piston scuffing caused
by insufficient warm-up will not be
covered by warranty. Also, do not
idle the engine for excessively long
periods of time.
