STARTING A COLD ENGINE (Above 55˚F)
Mix the bottle of 2-cycle oil (included) with 1 gallon of
unleaded gasoline (less than 30 days old). Combine them
in a separate container using a 40:1 ratio. Pour into fuel
tank.
1. Move on/off ignition switch to the "RUN (I) " position.
(Figure 1)
2. Your unit is designed with a 3 position choke: FULL
CHOKE " ", PARTIAL CHOKE "
Move choke lever to FULL CHOKE "
(Figure 2)
3. Prime the carburetor. Pump the primer bulb (A) 10
times (Figure 3).
4. Set throttle advance by squeezing trigger and at the
same time depressing throttle lock (B). (Figure 4)
5. With the unit on the ground, hold the front handle and
step on the bottom of the frame with foot. Pull starter
rope 6 times. (Figure 5)
NOTE: The unit uses the Spring Assist
which significantly reduces the effort required to start the
engine. You must pull the starter rope out far enough to
hear the engine attempt to start. There is no need to pull
the rope briskly--there is no harsh resistance when pulling.
Be aware that this starting method is vastly different from
(and much easier than) what you may be used to.
6. Move choke lever to PARTIAL CHOKE "
then pull 1-6 times (Figure 6) Engine should start and
warm up 30 seconds.
7. Move choke to RUN "
(Figure 7)
8. If engine fails to start, move choke lever to FULL
CHOKE " " position. Pull 2-3 times then move choke
lever to PARTIAL CHOKE "
times. Engine should start.
NOTE: If engine fails to start after repeated attempts,
refer to Troubleshooting section.
NOTE: Always pull starter rope straight out. Pulling
starter at an angle will cause rope to rub against the eye-
let. This friction will cause the rope to fray and wear more
quickly. Always hold starter handle when rope retracts.
Never allow rope to snap back from extended position.
This could cause rope to snag or fray and also damage
the starter assembly.
