Questions and answers
Pro xl 30 won’t start battery is good. Fuse is good
If the DR PRO 26 won't start despite having a good battery and fuse, possible issues could include:
1. Fuel Shutoff Valve is closed — it should be turned counterclockwise to open.
2. Choke Control is not in the correct position — it should be set to "choke" when starting a cold engine.
3. Throttle is not set correctly — it should be set to "choke" for starting.
4. No fuel or old fuel — ensure there is fresh 87 octane fuel with no more than 10% ethanol.
5. Extension cord not connected properly (for electric start models).
6. Safety interlock or switch not engaged.
Check each of these starting steps to identify the issue.
