7. When the engine starts and is
running, set the engine to idle by
tapping the throttle lever to release
the throttle lock.
IMPORTANT!
If the engine fails to start after
several attempts with the choke in
the closed position, the engine may
be flooded with fuel. If flooding is
suspected, move the choke lever
to the open position and repeatedly
pull the recoil starter to remove
excess fuel and start the engine. If
the engine still fails to start, refer to
the troubleshooting section of this
manual.
WARNING!
Never start the engine from the
operating position.
When the Engine Starts...
 After the engine starts, allow the
engine to warm up at idle 2 or 3
minutes before operating the unit.
 After the engine is warm, pick up
the unit and clip on the strap if so
equipped. (See page 19 "Shoulder
Strap").
 Advancing the throttle makes the
cutting attachment turn faster;
releasing the throttle permits the
attachment to stop turning. If the
cutting attachment continues to
rotate when the engine returns
to idle, carburetor idle speed
should be adjusted (see page 18
"Adjusting the Engine Idle").
