1. Once the engine starts, allow it to warm up for 2 to 3 minutes
at idling (i.e. low speed).
2. Warming the engine helps to lubricate its internal workings
more smoothly. Allow the engine to warm up fully, especially
when it is cold.
3. Never run the engine without the cutting attachment fitted.
1. Move the ignition switch to the Start position.
2. Make sure that the throttle trigger is at the idle speed posi-
tion.
3. Check that the choke lever is in the Open position.
4. If no fuel is visible in the purge bulb, alternately press and re-
lease the purge bulb until the fuel is sucked up into it.
5. Checking that the area around you is safe, hold the position
closest to the engine firmly, and pull on the starter grip to
start the engine.
1. Move the throttle trigger to the idle speed position and set
the engine to idling (i.e. low speed), keep it idling for about 2
minutes.
2. Move the ignition switch to the Stop position.
3. In the event of an emergency, stop the engine immediately
using the ignition switch.
4. If the engine fails to stop, move the choke lever to the "Cold
Start" position. The engine will stall and come to a halt (an
emergency stop).
∗ If the engine fails to stop when the ignition switch is used, have
the ignition switch checked and repaired by your dealer before
you use the product again.
Always disconnect the spark plug wire from the spark plug to en-
sure the engine cannot be started before you work on the unit or
leave it unattended.
