a. Key Start (if equipped): If the battery has enough charge, use the ignition key to start the engine by
holding the key in the "Start" position for a few seconds (New batteries can have no/little charge; use pull -
start, jump start or change battery if needed)

starts (E). Note: Each time you pull start you will need to push the decompression lever down or the pull
start will be difficult to use.

Re-Priming the fuel system (Diesel engines only)
Occasionally, when an engine is new or has been run completely out of fuel it may be necessary to "reprime" the fuel
system. This is simply removing any air bubbles from the fuel line.
1. With the fuel tank full of fuel and the fuel tap "ON", remove the fuel line
from the engine by using a pair of pliers to unclip the hose-clamp.
2. Allow fuel to flow out until there are no more air bubbles. This can be a
messy process so use an absorbent rag to catch all the fuel running out
of the line.
3. Push the fuel line back onto its connection point and re-fasten the hose
clamp.
4. Clean up any spilled fuel.
5. Attempt to start the engine.
