Fuel Valve Control
The fuel valve opens and closes the passage
between the fuel tank and the carburettor. The fuel
valve lever must be in the ON position for the engine
to run. When the engine is not in use, leave the fuel
valve lever in the OFF position to prevent carburettor
flooding and to reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
Throttle Control
The throttle lever controls engine speed. Moving the
throttle lever makes the engine run faster or slower.
Engine Switch
The engine switch enables and disables the ignition
system. The engine switch must be in the ON position
for the engine to run. Turning the engine switch to the
OFF position stops the engine.
E&OE
Choke Lever
The choke lever opens and closes the choke valve in
the carburettor. The closed position enriches the fuel
mixture for starting a cold engine. The open position
provides the correct fuel mixture for operation after
starting, and for restarting a warm engine. Some
engine applications use a remotely-mounted choke
control rather than the engine-mounted choke lever.
Recoil Starter Grip
Pulling the starter grip operates the recoil starter to
crank the engine.
