Starting the Engine

Standard Model
Pull the recoil handle slowly until you feel resistance,
then pull it sharply. Allow the rope to return to the
engine slowly.
Note: If the machine does not start after several
attempts, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
Electric-start Model
You can start the engine on an electric-start model by
using either the ignition key or the recoil-start handle.
• Ignition Key: Turn and hold the ignition key to the
Start position (Figure 17); when the engine starts,
release the key.
Important: Do not attempt to start the engine
with the blade-control bar engaged; otherwise,
you may blow the fuse.
