1. Starting Rope
This retracting rope and T-bar is an optional
method used to start the engine. Grasp the
T-bar firmly and pull the rope sharply to start
the engine. The key on the master control must
be ON for the engine to start.
2. Fuel Shut-Off Lever
Each engine is equipped with a fuel valve
between the fuel tank and the carburetor. The
fuel valve lever must be in the ON position (to
the right) for the engine to run. Slide the fuel
valve toward the engine to turn ON and away
for OFF (to the left).
Before transporting, or when the engine is not
in use, move the fuel valve lever to the OFF
position to prevent carburetor flooding and to
reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
3. Choke Lever
The choke lever controls the fuel/air mixture to
the engine. Close the choke when starting if the
engine is cold. Open the choke as the engine
warms. Always open the choke fully during
operation.
4. Throttle Lever
This lever controls the engine RPM. Move the
lever to increase or decrease the RPM. The
engine RPM controls the pump speed. Adjust
the throttle from 1/2 to full to obtain the desired
fuel flow.
5. Engine Key Switch
Turn the key switch to the START position to
start the engine. When the engine starts, then
release the key and allow it to return to the ON
position.
6. Engine Circuit Protection
The circuit protector protects the battery
charging circuit. A short circuit, or a battery
connected with reverse polarity, will trip the
circuit breaker. The green indicator inside the
circuit protector will pop out to show that the
circuit protector has switched off.
