8 Operation and use
NOTICE
In this position, the decompression automation system audibly locks into place and the
engine is ready to start.
3. Stand next to the machine.
4. Insert the starting crank into the support.
5. Grab the crank handle with one hand. Support yourself on the protective cage with the other hand.
NOTICE
After the decompression automation system locks into place, give starting crank
revolutions are required until the engine can be re-compressed and strike.
6. First slowly turn the starting crank counter-clockwise until the ratchet snaps into place. Then turn
powerfully with increasing speed.
NOTICE
Once the engine starts, the decompression lever disengages (the maximum possible
speed must be reached), the engine starts and the vibration starts.
The friction connection between the engine and starting crank must be ensured through
the anti-twist holding of the crank handle and rapid cranking and may not be interrupted
during the starting process under any circumstances.
If a recoil occurs during the starting process from not turning the crank hard enough, the
connection between the crank web and starting dog is disengaged via the crank handle
due to the short backturn.
When making another attempt at starting, wait until the engine comes to a standstill. Do
not actuate the decompression lever when the engine is running.
7. Pull the starting crank out of the support.
8. Put the throttle lever in the idle position and lock into place.
9. Suspend the starting crank in the provided bracket.
10.Allow the machine to warm up by idling for a few minutes.
