OPERATION
Starting the Engine
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2. Place the transmission in neutral.
3. Lock the parking brake.
NOTE:
The starter interlock will prevent the engine from starting if the trans-
mission is in gear and the brake is not engaged.
4. Turn the fuel valve on.
5. Sit on the vehicle.
NOTE:
Do not use the choke if starting a warm engine. Excessive use of the
choke can cause the spark plug to become wet fouled.
6. If the engine is cold, pull the
choke knob out until it stops.
NOTE:
The variable choke is fully on
when the knob is pulled com-
pletely out. The choke is off
when the knob is pushed
completely in. The choke can
be adjusted gradually,
depending on how much
choke is needed for starting.
Be sure the choke is off dur-
ing operation, as excess fuel
washing into the engine oil
will increase wear on engine
components.
NOTE:
If the knob doesn't stay
where positioned, increase
the tension by rotating the
tension adjusting nut clock-
wise.
7. Move the engine stop switch to RUN.
NOTE:
Do not press the throttle while starting the engine.
WARNING
Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide and can cause loss of
consciousness resulting in severe injury or death. Never run an engine in an
enclosed area.
