WARNING!
Never start the engine from

the operating position.

IMPORTANT!

The primer system only pushes fuel

through the carburetor. Repeatedly

pressing the primer bulb will not flood

the engine with fuel.

CAUTION!
Do not pull the recoil starter to the

end of the rope travel. Pulling the

recoil starter to the end of the rope

travel can damage the starter.

WARNING!
The attachment will operate immediately when the engine starts, and could result in possible serious injury.

Keep movable parts of the attachment away from objects that could become entangled or thrown, and surfaces that

could cause loss of control.

IMPORTANT!

If the engine fails to start after several

attempts with the choke in the closed

position, the engine may be flooded

with fuel. If flooding is suspected, refer

to the ”Starting a Flooded Engine”

section of this manual.

to slowly pull the recoil starter han-

dle until resistance is felt, then pull

quickly to start the engine.

After the engine starts, allow the

engine to warm up at idle 2 or 3

minutes before operating the unit.
Advancing the throttle makes the cut-

ting attachment move faster; releasing

the throttle permits the attachment to

stop moving. If the cutting attachment

continues to move when the engine

returns to idle, carburetor idle speed

should be adjusted. (See “Adjusting

Engine Idle”.)
