position;.this.operates.accelerator.pump..
and.primes.the.engine.
d.. Repeat.priming,.if.necessary.
e.. Return.the.control.handle.to.neutral.detent..
(idle).position.
2.. Turn.key.switch.to.START.position.and.hold.until.
engine.starts..DO.NOT.hold.in.START.position.for.
more.than.ten.seconds..In.colder.weather,.more.

•. Turn.key.switch.to.the.START.position.
•. Immediately.move.the.control.handle.to.the.neutral.
detent.(idle).position.when.the.engine.starts.
NOTICE
Failure to move the control handle to the idle
position immediately when engine starts will
allow engine to "over-rev" and engine damage
could result. "Over-revving" engine after off-
season storage could also damage the water
pump impeller. When starting engine for the
first time after off-season storage, always idle
engine for one minute to allow the water
pump to prime.

a.. Release.key.to.the.ON.or.RUN.position.
b.. Move.control.handle.to.the.fast.idle.position.to.
warm.up.engine..DO.NOT.exceed.1000.RPM.
C. Cold Engine Start (Carbureted Engines with
"Turn Key Start")
1. Place.the.remote.control.handle.in.neutral.
2. Turn.ignition.key.to.START..Release.key.when.
engine.starts.and.allow.switch.to.return.to.ON.po-
sition..Allow.engine.to.warm.up.(6-10.minutes.on.
first start of the day). The engine will normally idle
at.900-1000.RPM.and.then.return.to.normal.idle.
RPM.of.approximately.750.RPM.
