– Take hold of the starting handle with both
hands and turn it at increasing speed. The
maximum speed of rotation must have been
reached by the time the decompression lever
has returned to the „0“ position (compres-
sion). As soon as the engine has started, pull
the starting handle out of the guide sleeve.
– If the engine backfires because the crank han-
dle was not turned firmly enough (the engine
may even start to run backwards), release the
crank handle immediately and stop the engine
(Chapter 4.3.).
There is a risk of injury from the
rotating crank handle.
– To restart the engine, wait until it has come to
a standstill, then repeat the starting prepara-
tions.
Safety precaution
For greater protection against accidental injury
when starting with the handle, a handle with
kick-back damping can be used.
4.2.3. Starting in cold weather
At temperatures below app. –5 °C, always turn
the engine over to ensure that it rotates freely.
– Move the speed control lever to the START
position; Fig. 16.
– Place decompression lever in central position
between „0“ and „1“ (Fig. 17 and 18).
– Turn the engine over with the starting handle
until it is felt to rotate more freely (10 – 20
turns of the starting handle).
– If mechanical oil pressure monitoring is
fitted, press lever „1“ or pin „1“ in for about
15 seconds (Figs. 11 and 12).
