Close the choke lever and open the throttle valve 10% to 15%.

Pressing the tip of the starter to the engine’s spinner, press the start switch for 1-2 sec and

let the engine rotate.

If the engine has made an explosive sound, suspend the starting operation and start by

opening the choke lever and rotating the engine using the starter. (Opening or closing the
choke lever during engine operation is prohibited.)

If the engine will not start, leave the choke lever in the open position and rotate the engine

by pressing the starter for 1-2 sec. --- If the engine will not start, repeat this operation 2 or 3
times.

(A) Points in starting
● During the first startup operation, does the fuel reach the carburetor?

● If the fuel reaches the carburetor, the choke should be open position.

● Is the ignition switch on?

● If there is absolutely no explosive sound, remove the sparkplug and check it.

● If the sparkplug became wet condition by over choking, dry it out, open the choke, and restart.

(B) Cautions in starting
● One person must restrain the fuselage during the startup operation. (Thus, solo startup is

prohibited.)

● With the sparkplug removed when using the starter for rotation or rotating the propeller by hand,

make sure the ignition switch has been turned off.

● Rotation should be to the left. Confirm the direction of motor rotation in advance.
