STARTUP
DO NOT attempt to run the compactor until the Safety
Information and Startup sections have been read.
CAUTION NOTICE
The CLOSED position of the choke lever enriches the
fuel mixture for starting a COLD engine. The OPEN
position provides the correct fuel mixture for normal
operation after starting, and for restarting a warm engine.
DO NOT pull the starter rope all the way to the end.
D O NOT release the starter rope after pulling. Allow it to
rewind as soon as possible.
