Stop The Engine - Briggs & Stratton 1695904 Operator's Manual

Operation
If the extension cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer (or its
service agent) or a similarly qualified
person to avoid a hazard.
7. Electric Start: First connect the extension cord (E,
Figure 6) to the power cord receptacle (F) and then
into a wall receptacle. If additional extension cord is
required, make sure it is three-wire.
8. Electric Start: Depress the starter push button (G).
After you start the engine, first disconnect the extension
cord from the wall receptacle and then from the power
cord receptacle.
Important: To extend the life of the starter, use short
starting cycles (five seconds maximum). Wait one
minute between starting cycles.
NOTE: If the engine does not start after three attempts,
see the Troubleshooting section in the Engine Manual.
