2. To start, hold the top of the machine with your left hand
and put one foot on the base plate to prevent it slipping.
Pull the starter grip slowly with your right hand until you
feel it engage and then give it a brisk strong pull. Do not
pull the starter rope out more than about 70 cm (27") as
it might otherwise break.
Do no allow the starter rope to snap back. Guide it
slowly back into the housing so that it can rewind cor-
rectly.
Continue cranking the engine until it begins to fire. Then
open the choke immediately (turn rotary knob away
from arrow) and continue cranking.
3. Once the engine is running, move the setting lever (3)
immediately to its lower end position (ill.) so that the en-
gine can settle down to idle speed.
4. To stop the engine, slide the stop switch (1) to "STOP".
