Starting & Stopping the Engine

Using the Recoil Starter

The recoil starter is used to start the engine when the battery is low.
To operate the recoil starter:
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON (q) position.
2. Check that the transmission is in neutral.
3. Grasp the starter grip (1) firmly, then pull it out slowly
approximately 100 mm (4 in).
4. Pull the grip up briskly and fully.
5. After the engine starts, allow the starter grip to return slowly.
If the starter grip does not return smoothly (because of dirt in the
assembly), see your dealer.
