3. Move the throttle lever to Choke before starting a cold
engine (Fig. 6).
Note: A warm or hot engine may not require choking.
4. Turn the ignition key to Start to energize the starter.
When the engine starts, release the key.
Important Do not engage the starter for more than 10
seconds at a time. If the engine fails to start, allow a 60
second cool-down period between attempts. Failure to
follow these instructions can burn out the starter motor.
5. After the engine starts, move the throttle lever to Fast
(Fig. 6). If the engine stalls or hesitates, move the
throttle lever back to Choke for a few seconds. Then
move the throttle lever to the desired setting. Repeat
this as required.
