4.3.3 Starting Engine:
Brake must be engaged, motion control levers out (neutral lock position)
and PTO switch “OFF” to start engine. (It is not necessary for the operator to
be in the seat to start the engine.)
On a cold engine, place the throttle midway between the “SLOW” and “FAST”
positions and pull choke control out into the “ON” position. Turn ignition switch to
the “start” position. Release the switch as soon as the engine starts.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT crank the engine continuously for more then ten (10)
seconds at a time. If the engine does not start, allow a 60 second cool-
down period between starting attempts. Failure to follow these guidelines
can burn out the starter motor.
After starting a cold engine, gradually return choke to the “OFF” position as the
engine warms up.
On a warm engine, place the throttle midway between the “SLOW” and “FAST”
positions and leave the choke in the “OFF” position.
