Manual Start

1. To start a cold engine, move the Choke to the

START position.

To restart a warm engine, leave the Choke in the

RUN position.

2. Open the Fuel Valve.

3. Slide the Throttle or Speed Control Lever to 1/3

away from the SLOW position (the “turtle”).

Note: Some tools have a Speed Control Lever located

elsewhere on the tool which functions the same as the

Throttle. Use the Speed Control Lever in place of the

Throttle when the tool is so equipped.

4. Turn the Engine Switch on.

5. Grip the Starter Handle of the Engine loosely and pull

it slowly several times to allow the gasoline to flow into

the Engine’s carburetor. Then pull the Starter Handle

gently until resistance is felt. Allow Cable to retract fully

and then pull it quickly. Repeat until the engine starts.

Note: Do not let the Starter Handle snap back against the engine.

Hold it as it recoils so it doesn't hit the engine.
