OPERATION
3. Align the throttle grip START position with the mark on the tiller handle.
4. To start a cold engine, pull out the choke knob. To restart a warm engine,
leave the choke knob pushed in.
5. Pull the recoil starter grip slowly until you feel resistance, then pull briskly.
NOTICE
• Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine. Return it gently
to prevent damage to the starter.
• Do not pull the starter grip while the engine is running, as that may damage
the starter.
If the engine fails to start, check the engine stop switch clip.
