1. To avoid carbon monoxide poisoning, make sure

engine is outdoors in a well-ventilated area.

2. Move engine speed control to “FAST” position and set

choke control to “FULL” position (see equipment manu-
facturer’s instructions). See Figure s 9, 10, 11 and 12.

NOTES

Generator and Water Pump applications may have the
choke lever mounted on the engine. See Figure 12.

If restarting a warm engine after a short shutdown, move
Speed Control to “FAST” position and move Choke Control
to “NO CHOKE” position.

3. Push starter button or turn ignition switch key (see

equipment manufacturer’s instructions) to start engine.

NOTES

DO NOT operate an electric starter for more than 5 seconds
each attempt.

If engine fails to start after 3 attempts repeat steps 2 thru 3.

4. When engine starts:

a. Release starter button or ignition switch key.
b. Next, move choke control to “1/2 CHOKE” position

until engine runs smoothly.

c. Next, move choke control to “NO CHOKE” position.

5. Finally, move engine speed control to desired speed in

“RUN” range.

NOTES

If engine starts, but falters when choke is moved to “NO
CHOKE” position:

a. Momentarily move choke control back to “FULL

CHOKE” position.

b. Next, move choke control to “1/2 CHOKE” position

until engine runs smoothly.

c. Finally, move choke control to “NO CHOKE”

position.

If engine dies after control is moved to “NO CHOKE”
position, repeat steps 2 thru 5 to restart engine.

6. If engine fires but does not continue to run, move

choke control lever to “NO CHOKE” position and start
engine.

7. If engine fails to start after 3 attempts in the “NO

CHOKE” position, move choke control to “FULL
CHOKE” position and start engine.

8. If engine does not start after following steps 1 thru 7,
