2.6.c CHOKE CONTROL LEVER (Fig. 9)

The choke (1) provides an increase in the percentage of fuel in the air-gas mixture at low engine r.p.m.,
so that it is easier to start in case of low ambient temperature.

To engage the choke, place the lever in vertical position. To disengage it, put it back in low position.

WARNING:

When starting the engine with the help of the choke, the throttle lever (2)

must be kept in its idling position (IDLE).

Once the engine is started, do not use the choke for extended periods of time. Do not use
the choke if the ambient temperature is greater than 20° C.
