Note: Remove your glove when you push in the
primer so that air cannot escape from the primer
hole.
Important: Do not use the primer or the choke
if the engine has been running and is hot.
Excessive priming may flood the engine and
prevent it from starting.
4. Connect an extension cord to a power source and
the machine, and push the electric-start button

Note: Use only a 16-gauge extension cord
recommended for outdoor use that is not longer
than 50 feet (15 m).
WARNING
The electrical cord can become damaged,
causing a shock or fire.
Thoroughly inspect the electrical cord before
plugging it into a power source. If the
cord is damaged, do not use it to start the
machine. Replace or repair the damaged cord
immediately. Contact an Authorized Service
Dealer for assistance (model 38283 only).
Important: Run the electric starter no more
than 10 times at intervals of 5 seconds on, then
5 seconds off. Running the electric starter
extensively can overheat and damage it. If the
engine does not start after this series of attempts,
wait at least 40 minutes to allow the starter to
cool before attempting to start it again. If the
engine does not start after the second series of
attempts, take the machine to an Authorized
Service Dealer for service (model 38283 only).
Note: If the recoil starter does not operate properly,
it may be frozen. Thaw out the starter before
attempting to start the machine.
5. While the engine is running, move the choke lever
gradually to the left.
6. Unplug the extension cord from the power source
and the machine (model 38283 only).
CAUTION
If you leave the machine plugged into a power
source, someone can inadvertently start the
machine and injure people or damage property.
Unplug the power cord whenever you are not
starting the machine (model 38283 only).
