Position the throttle lever for the desired engine speed.
Some engine applications use a remote-mounted throttle control
rather than the engine-mounted throttle lever shown here. Refer to
the instructions provided by the equipment manufacturer.
For engine speed recommendations, refer to the instructions
provided with the equipment powered by this engine.
Do not disconnect the battery from the engine while the engine is
running. Disconnecting the battery causes the fuel-cut solenoid to
shut off the flow of fuel to the carburetor main jet, and the engine
will stop.
To stop the engine in an emergency, simply turn the engine switch
to the OFF position. Under normal conditions, use the following
procedure. Refer to the instructions provided by the equipment
manufacturer.
Move the throttle lever to the SLOW position.
Some engine applications use a remote-mounted throttle
control rather than the engine-mounted throttle lever shown
here. Refer to the instructions provided with the equipment
powered by this engine for remote control information.
Turn the engine switch to the OFF position.
If the fuel tank is equipped with a valve, turn the fuel valve to the
CLOSED or OFF position.
If the choke lever was moved to the CLOSED position to start the
engine, gradually move it to the OPEN position as the engine
warms up.

Pull the starter grip lightly until you feel resistance, then pull
briskly in the direction of the arrow as shown below. Return the
starter grip gently.
Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine.
Return it gently to prevent damage to the starter.
