Trouble Recovery
88
NOTE:
●
If the engine does not start on the first try,
repeat the procedure. If the engine fails to
start after 4 or 5 tries, open the throttle a
small amount (between 1/8 and 1/4) and
try again. Also if the engine is warm and
fails to start, open the throttle a same
amount and try to start the engine again. If
the engine still fails to start, see page 36.
●
Slowly return the throttle grip to the fully
closed position so that the engine does not
stall.
