STARTING THE POST DRIVER
CAUTION! Failure to follow the steps below will result in rapid retraction of

toward the engine, possibly resulting in an injury.

2. Before starting the tool for the first time, press repeatedly on the
transparent fuel priming bubble (S) to fill the carburetor with fuel.

choke is unnecessary when starting a warm engine.
4. Lay the tool flat on the floor. Hold one handle (M) and pull the starter
handle (A) lightly until you feel resistance, then pull the starter handle
briskly. The engine should turn over and start running.
a. Do not allow the starter handle to snap back against the engine.
Instead, return the starter grip gently by hand.
5. If the engine floods, set the choke to the OPEN/RUN position, place the
throttle in FAST and attempt to start the engine again.
6. If the choke lever was moved to the CLOSED position to start the engine,
gradually move it to the OPEN position as the engine warms up.
