Starting The Engine - Predator 63080 Owner's Manual & Safety Instructions

Starting the Engine

1. To start a cold engine, move the Choke to the
START position.
To restart a warm engine, leave the Choke in the
RUN position.
2. Open the Fuel Valve.
3. Turn the Engine Switch to ON.
4. Grip the Starter Handle of the Engine loosely and
pull it slowly several times to allow the gasoline to
flow into the Engine's carburetor. Then pull the
Starter Handle gently until resistance is felt. Allow
Cable to retract fully and then pull it quickly.
Repeat until the engine starts.
Note: Do not let the Starter Handle snap back against
the engine. Hold it as it recoils so it doesn't hit the engine.
Note: If engine does not start, check engine oil level.
Engine will not start with low or no engine oil.
5. Allow the Engine to run for several seconds. Then,
if the Choke lever is in the START position, move
the Choke Lever very slowly to its RUN position.
Note: Moving the Choke Lever too
fast could stall the engine.
IMpORTANT: Allow the engine to run at no load for five minutes with no
load after each start-up so that the engine can stabilize.
