position for 10 seconds, then move choke to "RUN"
position. (Figure-6-1 G)
NOTE: Your unit is equipped with a throttle advance
which also can be used during starting. (Figure 6-1H)
NOTE: lf engine fails to start, after repeated attempts,
refer to Troubleshooting section.
NOTE: Always pull starter rope straight up. Pulling
starter at an angle will cause rope to rub against the
eyelet. This friction will cause rope to fray and wear
quickly. Always hold starter handle when rope retracts.
Never let rope snap back from extended position. This
could cause rope to snag or fray and also damage the
starter assembly.

1. Release throttle trigger. Let engine return to idle.
Extend stader rope 4"-6" to absorb strain on starter
components when engine stops. Push and hold

rope to retract slowly. (Figure 6-2A)

more than 6 times. Keep throttle at FULL position
until engine runs smoothly.

tion and pull starter rope 5 more times. lf engine still
does not start it is probably flooded. Wait 5 minutes
