completely close the throttle. (See
page 4-6.)
4. Start the engine by pushing the
kickstarter lever down.
5. When the engine is warm, turn the
starter (choke) off.

quickly to the throttle with the starter
(choke) turned off.

celerate hard when the engine is
cold!

Starting a warm engine

Follow the same procedure as for
starting a cold engine with the excep-
tion that the starter (choke) is not re-
quired when the engine is warm.
Instead, start the engine with the throt-
tle slightly open.
TIP
If the engine does not start after sever-
al kicks, try again with the throttle 1/4
to 1/2 open.
