Pull the choke knob 1 fully out. Align the
arrow mark on the throttle control grip 2
with the position A.
If the engine is warm:
Align the arrow mark on the throttle control
grip 2 with the position A. Do not use the

Operating the engine at high RPM or
"wide open throttle" immediately after
starting the engine without allowing the
engine to warm up may cause engine fail-
ure.
Always allow the engine to warm up suffi-
ciently before operating it at high speeds.
