INITIAL SERVICING
The engine (Figure 10) must be checked for proper
lubrication and filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the
manufacturer's engine manual for instructions and details
on operation and servicing.
1. Throttle Lever — Adjusts engine RPM speed.
2. Fuel Filler Cap/Fuel Tank — Remove this cap to add
unleaded gasoline to the fuel tank. Refer to Table 4
for fuel tank capacity. Make sure the cap is tightened
securely. DO NOT overfill.
DANGER
Add fuel to the tank only when the engine is
stopped and has had an opportunity to cool
down. In the event of a fuel spill, DO NOT
attempt to start the engine until the fuel
residue has been completely wiped up
and the area surrounding the engine is dry.
3. Engine ON/OFF Switch — ON position permits engine
starting, OFF position stops engine operation.
4. Recoil Starter (pull rope) — Manual starting method.
Pull the starter grip slowly until resistance is felt, then
pull briskly and smoothly to start the engine.
