Move slide control (4) to START and then release throttle trigger, slide control and throttle trigger interlock in that order.
  • Page 9 Issue 8 June 2014 • Ensure machine is clamped firmly in position on rail. Pull the starter grip slowly with your right hand until you feel it engage - then give the grip a brisk, strong pull - do not pull out starter rope more than 60cm (about 2ft) - it might otherwise break.
  • Page 10 Issue 8 June 2014 During operation: • After a long period of full throttle operation, allow the engine to run for a short while at idling speed so that the engine heat can be dissipated by the flow of cooling air. This protects engine mounted components (ignition, carburettor) from thermal overload.
