Manual Start

1. To start a cold engine, move the Choke to the
CHOKE position.
To restart a warm engine, leave the Choke in the
RUN position.
2. Open the Fuel Valve.
3. Slide the Throttle or Speed Control Lever to 1/3
away from the SLOW position (the "turtle").
Note: Some tools have a Speed Control Lever located
elsewhere on the tool which functions the same as the Throttle.
Use the Speed Control Lever in place of the Throttle when the
tool is so equipped.
4. Turn the Engine Switch on.
5. Grip the Starter Handle of the Engine loosely and pull
it slowly several times to allow the gasoline to flow into
the Engine's carburetor. Then pull the Starter Handle
gently until resistance is felt. Allow Cable to retract fully
and then pull it quickly. Repeat until the engine starts.
Note: Do not let the Starter Handle snap back against the
engine. Hold it as it recoils so it doesn't hit the engine.
