BS 50-2 Operation
4.6 Starting, Operating, and Stopping the Machine
Requirements
Rammer is in serviceable condition and has been properly maintained
There is fuel in the tank
Starting the
machine
Perform the procedure below to start the machine.
1. Move the throttle to the idle position (c2). This will automatically start the flow of
fuel.
2. Close the choke (b1).
3. Pump the purge bulb (e) 6 to 10 times or until you see fuel in the bulb.
Note: The engine will not become flooded by pumping the purge bulb more than 10
times. Pumping the purge bulb removes air from the fuel system. It does not pump
fuel into the carburetor.
4. Pull the starter rope repeatedly until the engine starts.
Multiple pulls of the starter rope (usually fewer than five) may be required to start
an engine:
on a new machine being operated for the first time
that has not been run for a long period of time (a week or more)
that has been run completely out of fuel
in cold weather conditions
