FUEL SHUT-OFF AND CHOKE CONTROL

3. Set the Idler Control switch to the “AUTOMATIC”

position. See Figure B.4.

4. Place the engine stop switch in the “RUN” position.

See Figure B.4.

5. Pull slightly on the recoil starter handle until resis-

tance is felt.

FIGURE B.4

IDLER CONTROL AND STOP SWITCH

Pull the starter cord rapidly.

If the engine does not start, open the choke slight-
ly (move lever right) and pull the starter cord rapid-
ly again.

When the engine starts, immediately open the choke
to the right-most position. The engine will go to idle
speed after about 12 seconds.

FOR A “HOT” ENGINE:

Open the fuel shutoff valve on the bottom of the
engine.

Place the choke lever in the right-most, position.
Closing the choke of a hot engine will flood the
carburetor and prevent starting.

Pull slightly on the recoil starter handle until resis-
tance is felt.

Pull the cord rapidly.

FOR BEST ENGINE STARTING:

• Do not adjust air or fuel mixtures without following

the procedures in the Briggs & Stratton Owner’s
Manual.

• Always use fresh gasoline and be sure the filter is

clean and properly maintained.

• If you use an alternate fuel tank or supply, be sure to

install an in-line fuel filter.

• Do not pull the recoil starter with the choke in the

left position more than one time. Repeated pulls on
a choked engine will flood the carburetor.

• If you don’t feel resistance when you pull the recoil

cord, gently hit the starter housing and/or pull the
cord out to its fully extended position and wiggle it
rapidly. Repeat this if necessary until the clutch
engages the shaft and you feel resistance when you
pull the cord.

• If the engine will not start, see the Troubleshooting

section of this manual.

STOPPING THE ENGINE

Remove all welding and generator power loads
and let the engine cool by running it for several
minutes.

Stop the engine by placing the rocker run/stop
switch in the stop position.

Close the fuel shutoff valve at the bottom of the
engine, below the recoil starter.

Close the fuel valve when the machine is transported
to prevent fuel leakage from the carburetor. Drain the
tank before transporting the machine in a vehicle.

For long periods of storage, turn off the fuel shutoff
valve (horizontal upward position) and let the engine
run until there is no more fuel in the line. Use a fuel
additive such as Sta-Bil to minimize fuel gum deposits.
