allow for fuel expansion If gasoline is
accidentally spilled, move machine

any source of ignition until gasoline
vapors have disappeared

TO START ENGINE (See Fig. 8)
CAUTION: Keep tine control in “OFF”
position when starting engine.
When starting engine for the first time or if engine has run
out of fuel, it will take extra pulls of the recoil starter to move
fuel from the tank to the engine.
e Make sure spark plug wire is properly connected.
• Place throttle control in “FAST" position.
• Move choke control to full “CHOKE” position. Grasp
recoil starter handle with one hand and grasp tiller
handle with other hand. Pull rope out slowly until
engine reaches start of compression cycle (rope will
pull slightly harder at this point).
• Pull recoil starter handle quickly. Do not let starter
handle snap back against starter. Repeat if necessary.
• If engine fires but does not start, move choke control to
half choke position. Pull recoil starter handle until
engine starts.
• When engine starts, slowly move choke control to
“RUN” position as engine warms up.
