Alternative method of starting:
: Hold the rear handle tightly between 
your legs, just above the knees.
: Hold the front handle firmly with 
your left hand – your thumb should 
be under the handle.
: Pull the starter grip slowly with your 
right hand until you feel it engage – 
and then give it a brisk strong pull 
and push down the front handle at 
the same time.
Do not pull out starter rope to its full 
length –
it might otherwise break.
Do not let the starter grip snap back 
– guide it slowly and vertically into 
the housing so that the starter rope 
can rewind properly.
If engine is new, pull starter grip several 
times to prime the fuel line.
When engine begins to fire:
: Press in decompression valve 
again.
: Move Master Control lever (3) to n 
and continue cranking – as soon 
as engine runs, immediately blip 
the throttle trigger (4) – 
the Master Control lever (3) will 
move to the “Run” position #  (5) 
and the engine will settle down to 
idling speed.
.
As the chain brake is still engaged, 
the engine must be returned to 
idling speed immediately – or the 
engine and chain brake might 
otherwise be damaged.
