STARTING THE ENGINE
STARTING THE ENGINE WITH THE ELECTRIC STARTER
THROTTLE LEVER
SLOW
CHOKE
The engine is equipped with a fuel-cut solenoid that allows fuel to
flow to the carburetor main jet when the engine switch is in the ON
or START position and stops the flow of fuel to the main jet when
the engine switch is in the OFF position.
The engine must be connected to the battery to energize the fuel-
cut solenoid, allowing the engine to run. If the battery is discon-
nected, fuel flow to the carburetor main jet will stop.
Always keep hands and feet clear of rotating machinery.
If the fuel tank is equipped with a valve, be sure the fuel valve is in
the OPEN or ON position before attempting to start the engine.
Move the throttle lever to the CHOKE position to start a cold
engine. Leave the throttle lever in the SLOW position if the
engine is warm or the air temperature is high.
