Starting the Engine

1. Push key in (Figure 9).

2. Move choke lever to left position (Figure 10).

3. Firmly push in the primer 2 times with your thumb,

holding the primer in a for a second before releasing

it each time (Figure 11).

NOTE: Remove your glove when you push in the primer

IMPORTANT: It may not be necessary to use the primer

or the choke if the engine has been running and is hot.

Excessive priming may flood the engine and prevent it

from starting.

with an electric starter, connect an extension cord to

the snow thrower and plug the other end into a three-

electric-start button (Figure 12).

NOTE: Use an extension cord recommended for outdoor

use that is not longer than 50 feet (15 m).
