For Safety's Sake When
Starting...
Slowly pull the recoil starter rope
to a point outside the bumper
(Fig. 15) before you give it your
"startup" pull.
By doing that, you won't hit your
fingernails or knuckles on the
bumper as you start the engine.
Also, at the end of your pull, don't
just let the rope go...it could wrap
around the bumper and maybe
even damage the recoil start
mechanism. Gently feed back the
rope as the recoil rewinds it.
Removing the Bumper Guard
Here's the easiest way to remove
the Bumper Guard, using the
same steps as you did to
assemble it. Before starting,
disconnect the spark plug wire
and let the muffler and engine
cool down so you won't get
burned on hot engine parts.
Also see battery WARNING on
page 3.
1. On electric starting tillers, first
disconnect the electric wires on
certain model engines as shown
in steps 2 through 4 on pg. 3.
