The gas must be fresh and clean. If the gas is old, change it. Use a fuel stabilizer if you keep
gas longer than one month.

Check the Throttle adjustment and travel. See page 12.
⇒
The Spark Plug(s) may be dirty or cracked, change it.
⇒
If the Spark Plug(s) is oily, leave it out, hold a rag over the Plug hole(s) and crank the Engine
over a couple of times using the Electric Starter to blow out any oil in the Cylinder(s), then wipe
off the Plug(s) and reinsert it.
⇒
The Air Filter may be dirty, change it following the procedure in the Engine Owner’s Manual.

There are two Fuses in the Wiring Harness. Check the Fuses and replace if needed.

Check the wire connections—especially the ground connection, the large green wire coming
from the Battery, where it connects to the Engine.
⇒
The Battery may not be charged. Check the voltage yourself or at a service station. If it is low,
charge it with a 12-volt, 1 to 2-amp trickle charger. If you do not use your machine for at least
45 minutes at a time, the Battery may need to be periodically charged. See the “Battery Care”
section on page 23.

start, visit our website at www.DRpower.com or call
