the rope a little from that point and pull out sharply.
Starter Grip Figure 14.
If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever 6.
(Figure 11) to the CLOSED position. If the engine has
not started repeat steps 1 through 5.
Before the compactor is put into operation run the 7.
engine for 3-5 minutes.
Check for abnormal engine noises or fuel leaks. 8.
NOTICE
The CLOSED position of the choke lever enriches the
fuel mixture for starting a COLD engine. The OPEN
position provides the correct fuel mixture for normal
operation after starting, and for restarting a warm
engine.
