STARTING CONTROLS

Electric Start Units Only

A. Electric Start Button - The Electric Start Button

(A, Figure 3) activates an electric starter mounted to
the engine, eliminating the need to pull the starter
handle. The Electric Start Button operates on 120
Volts AC, which is provided by connection to the
extension cord provided with units equipped with this
feature.  

Connect this extension cord ONLY to a

properly grounded 3 prong electrical outlet.

Manual Start

B. Fuel Valve - The fuel valve (B, Figure 3) is located

under the fuel tank. It is used to turn the fuel supply
off for out-of-season storage.

C. Starter Handle - The starter handle (C, Figure 3)

connects to a starter cord to manually start the
engine. Pulling starter handle rapidly spins the engine
crankshaft, cycles the engine, and generates the
spark necessary for starting the engine.

D. Primer Button - When pressed, the primer button

(D, Figure 3) provides initial fuel to help start a cold
engine. Normally, pressing the primer button twice
will provide enough fuel to start a cold engine.

E. Throttle Lever - The throttle lever (E, Figure 3) con-

trols the engine speed.  For best overall performance,
the throttle lever should be set to the FAST position.
Use the SLOW position only for warming the engine,
or to help prevent snow/ice freeze-up when shutting
the unit down for the day.

F. Engine Key - The Engine Key (F, Figure 3) prevents

the engine from being started by unauthorized indi-
viduals. The key must be fully inserted into the key
slot for the unit to start. The key is also used to stop
the engine by pulling the key out of the key slot.

G. Choke Knob - The Choke Knob (G, Figure 3) adjusts

the air/fuel mixture, and is used to help start a cold
engine by providing a richer mixture. Once the engine
is warm and running smoothly, the Choke Knob
should be set to the off position to provide a normal
air/fuel mix.
