Starting The Engine; Stopping The Engine - Honda FG110 Owner's Manual

Starting The Engine

1. Move the engine switch to the ON position.
2. To start a cold engine, move the choke lever up
to the CLOSED () position.
To restart a warm engine, leave the choke lever
down in the OPEN position.
3. To start a cold engine, or after refueling an
engine that has run out of fuel, press the priming
bulb repeatedly until fuel can be seen in the
clear plastic fuel-return tube.
To restart a warm engine, it is not necessary to
press the priming bulb.
4. Place your left hand on the carrying handle and
hold it firmly. Make sure your feet are away from
the tiller tines. With your right hand, pull the
starter grip lightly until you feel resistance, then
pull briskly. Return the starter grip gently.
5. If the choke lever was moved to the CLOSED
() position, gradually move it to the OPEN
position as the engine warms up.
Allow the engine to warm up for a few moments
after starting the engine cold.
The tiller tines should not rotate with the engine
idling. If there is rotation at idle, adjust the idle
speed correctly before using the tiller (see
page 23).

Stopping the Engine
