STARTING ENGINE
1) To start a cold engine, move the choke lever to the CLOSED position. To restart a warm
engine, leave the choke lever in the OPEN position.
2) To start a cold engine, or after refueling an engine that has run out of fuel, press the priming
bulb repeatedly until fuel can be seen in the clear plastic fuel-return tube. To restart a warm
engine, it is not necessary to press the priming bulb.
3) Turn the ignition switch on the equipment to the ON position.
4) Always make sure the pickup hose is located in water source before starting. Running the
pump without water can damage the pump. The pump should always be flushed with water
before applying chemicals, as there may be residue remaining in the pump and hoses.
5) Set the pressure control valve handle to the "Start" position.
6) Pull the starter grip lightly until you feel resistance, then pull briskly. Return the starter grip
gently. Always pull the starter grip briskly. If not pulled briskly, sparks may fail to jump across the
spark plug electrodes, resulting in failure to start the engine.
7) If the choke lever has been moved to the closed position to start the engine, gradually
move it to the OPEN position as the engine warms up.
WARNING:
IF THE ENGINE DOES NOT START IN SPITE OF REPEATED OPERATION,
OPEN THE CHOKE LEVER FULLY,THEN PULL THE CORD TO START THE ENGINE.
CAUTION:
Make sure the spray gun or wand is in the CLOSE position, or when the engine starts
water or chemical will flow freely and can be hazardous. This unit should only be operated in
well ventilated areas. The exhaust fumes are hazardous to your health.
