Choke lever
If the choke lever

buretor through which the engine may draw in additional fuel. This produ-
ces a „rich“ fuel/air mixture necessary for cold start. If the choke lever is
pushed forward up to the stop, the bore will be closed again. In this posi-
tion the choke cable must have a play of approx. 2 mm.
