require choking. Pull the knob UP to close the choke.
Push to knob DOWN to open the choke.
Hour Meter
The hour meter measures the number of hours the
PTO has been engaged. The hour meter has a self
contained power source so the total hours are always
visible.

The ignition switch starts and stops the engine, it has
three positions:
OFF
Stops the engine and shuts off the
electrical system.
RUN

powers the electrical system.

NOTE: Never leave the ignition switch in the RUN
position with the engine stopped–this drains the
battery.

Turning the handle to the desired position determines
which tank will be supplying fuel. With the handle
pointing LEFT, it will draw fuel from the left-hand tank.

towards the operator, it will shut off fuel flow to the
engine.
