5. Firmly grasp the recoil starter handle and pull
it slowly until you feel increased resistance. At
this point, pull it briskly up and away from the
generator (see Figure 18). Do not allow the starter
handle to snap back against the engine, but
instead return it gently to prevent starter damage.
Do not allow the starter cord to rub against other
parts of the generator.

6. As the engine starts running and stabilizes,
gradually move the choke lever back to the OFF
position.
7. Connect electrical cords or devices into the 240-
Volt AC and/or 12-Volt DC outlets, as required.
Switch the 240-Volt AC Main Circuit Breaker to
the ON position and then switch the 240-Volt AC
Circuit Breakers for Outlets A and B (if equipped)
to the ON position; allow a few seconds between
switching on Outlets A and B so that the generator
can stabilize.
