START THE ENGINE
Be sure that engine oil is at FULL mark on the oil fill cap/dipstick. The
snowthrower engine is equipped with an A.C. electric starter and recoil
starter. Before starting the engine, be certain that you have read the fol-
lowing information.
If engine floods, set the choke to the OPEN/RUN position and crank
until the engine starts.
WARNING: The electric starter is equipped with a
three−wire power cord and plug designed to operate on AC
house hold current. The power cord must be properly
grounded at all times to avoid the possibility of electric
shock which can cause injury to the operator. Follow all
instructions carefully as set forth:
Make sure your house has a three−wire grounded system.
If you are not sure, ask a licensed electrician. If your house does
not have a three−wire grounded system, do not use this electric
starter under any condition.
If your house has a three−wire grounded system but a three-hole
receptacle is not available to connect the electric starter, have a
three−hole receptacle installed by a licensed electrician.
WARNING: To connect power cord, always connect the
power cord first to the switch box located on the
engine and then plug the other end into a three−hole
grounded receptacle.
WARNING: To disconnect the power cord, always
unplug the end connected to the three−hole grounded
receptacle first.
Start the engine as follows:
1. Check the oil level. See Check the Oil section.
2. Make sure equipment drive controls are disengaged.
3. Insert the safety key (A, Figure 6) into the safety key slot and
push fully in to the RUN position.
4. Turn the choke control knob (B) to the CHOKE position.
NOTE: Do not use the choke to start a warm engine.
5. Push the primer button (C) two times.
NOTE: Do not use the primer to start a warm engine.
NOTE: Ensure that electric extension cord is removed from the
power receptacle.

6. Rewind Start: Firmly hold the starter cord handle (A, Figure 7).
Pull the starter cord handle slowly until resistance is felt, then pull
rapidly.
WARNING: Rapid retraction of the starter cord (kickback)
will pull your hand and arm toward the engine faster
than you can let go. Broken bones, fractures, bruises,
or sprains could result. When starting engine, pull the
starter cord slowly until resistance is felt and then pull
rapidly to avoid kickback.
