5. STARTING THE ENGINE (REMOTE CONTROL TYPE)
FAST
CHOKdFAST IDLE LEVER
3. When the engine is cold or the
ambient temperature is low, lift the
choke/fast idle lever up fully. This
will provide a rich fuel mixture.
When the engine is warm, it may be
necessary to raise the choke/fast idle
lever slightly. Hold it in this position.
The choke/fast idle lever will not move
unless the control lever is in the N
(neutral) position.
4. Holding the choke/fast idle lever
in position, turn the ignition switch
key to the START position, and
release the key when the engine
starts.
The starter motor consumes a large
amount of current. Do not run it
continuously for more than 5
seconds at a time.
If the engine
does not start
within 5
seconds, wait at least 10 seconds
before using
the starter motor again.
n
Do not turn the ignition switch key
to the start position while the
engine is running. This can damage
the starter motor and flywheel.
5. After starting the engine, return the
lever slowly to a position where
the engine does not stall, and hold
the lever in that position.
The control lever will not move unless
the choke/fast idle lever is returned to
the lowest position.
