OPERATION
Starting the Engine
WARNING
Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide and can
cause loss of consciousness resulting in severe injury or death.
Never run an engine in an enclosed area.
1. Position the vehicle on a level
surface.
2. Place the transmission in
neutral.
3. Lock the parking brake.
NOTE: The starter interlock will
prevent the engine from
starting if the
transmission is in gear
and the brake is not
engaged.
4. Turn the fuel valve on.
5. Sit on the vehicle.
NOTE: Do not use the choke if starting a warm engine. Excessive
use of the choke can cause the spark plug to become wet
fouled.
6. If the engine is cold, pull the choke knob out until it stops (1).
NOTE: The variable choke is fully on when the knob is pulled
completely out. The choke is off when the knob is pushed
completely in. The choke can be adjusted gradually,
depending on how much choke is needed for starting. Be
sure the choke is off during operation, as excess fuel
washing into the engine oil will increase wear on engine
components.
NOTE: If the knob doesn’t stay where positioned, increase the
tension by rotating the tension adjusting nut (2) clockwise.
