Note: To use the electric starter, connect a power
cord to the electric starter plug-in first and then to a
power outlet. Use only a UL-listed, 16-gauge extension
cord recommended for outdoor use that is not longer
than 50 feet (15 m).
WARNING
The electrical cord can become damaged,
causing a shock or fire.
Thoroughly inspect the electrical cord before
using the machine. If the cord is damaged,
do not operate the machine. Replace or repair
the damaged cord immediately. Contact an
Authorized Service Dealer for assistance.
Important: To prevent damaging the electric
starter, run it in short cycles (5 seconds on,
5 seconds off), no more than 10 times. If the
engine still does not start, take the machine to an
Authorized Service Dealer for service.
8. Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet first
and then from the machine (electric start only).
9. Allow the engine to warm up; gradually move the
choke toward the Run position. Wait for the engine to
run smoothly before each choke adjustment.
CAUTION
If you leave the machine plugged into a
power outlet, someone can inadvertently start
the machine and injure people or damage
property.
Unplug the power cord whenever you are not
starting the machine.
