Stopping The Engine
1. Move the throttle lever to the
IDLE
or
SLOW
position (Figure
15) and run the engine for three minutes at low speed.
7. If the engine has started, slowly return the choke lever
(Figure 12) to the
OPEN
position. If the engine has not started
repeat steps 1 through 6.
8. Before the PSH is placed into operation, run the engine for
several minutes. Check for fuel leaks, and noises that would
associate with a loose V-belt cover or component.
6. Grasp the starter grip (Figure 14) and slowly pull it out. The
resistance becomes the hardest at a certain position, corre-
sponding to the compression point. Pull the starter grip briskly
and smoothly for starting.
