Starting and warming up a
EWA14531 cold engine
1. Turn the fuel cock lever to "O" (on).
2. Set the engine stop switch to
"START".
3. Turn the starter (choke) on and
completely close the throttle. (See
page 3-6.)
4. While applying the front or rear
brake, start the engine by pushing
the kickstarter lever down.
5. After starting the engine, move the
starter (choke) back halfway.
CAUTION:
For maximum engine life, always
warm the engine up before starting
off. Never accelerate hard when the
engine is cold!
6. When the engine is warm, turn the
starter (choke) off and set the en-
gine stop switch to "RUN".

The engine is warm when it responds
normally to the throttle with the starter
(choke) turned off.

Starting a warm engine

Follow the same procedure as for start-
ing a cold engine with the exception
that the starter (choke) is not required
when the engine is warm. Instead, start
the engine with the throttle slightly
open.
NOTE:
If the engine does not start after sever-
al kicks, try again with the throttle 1/4
to 1/2 open.
