NOTE: The starting position of the choke will vary depending on the engine temperature. If
starting a cold engine, move the choke lever towards the CHOKE position. If starting a warm
engine, move the choke lever towards the RUN position.
6. Pull the recoil slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly to start the engine.
Rapid retraction (also known as kickback) of the engine recoil starter cord will pull your
hand and arm towards the engine faster than you can let go of the handle resulting
in sprains, broken bones, lacerations, and/or traumatic amputations. Kickback is often
caused by internal engine failure, and/or improper starting techniques. To avoid kickback
follow the appropriate maintenance schedule, starting instructions and have repair work
done by an authorized service center.
7. Once the engine starts, slowly move the choke lever to RUN as the engine runs. If
the engine falters, move the choke toward CHOKE until the engine has warmed up.
8. Allow engine to warm for 1-2 minutes before using the product.
