Starting procedure

– Devices which are not securely fastened should be
restrained with the foot.
– Grip the handle with both hands.
Commence pulling the starting cable vigorously and at an
increasing speed (do not jerk it violently) until the engine
starts.
NOTE: If after several attempts of starting the exhaust
begins to emit white smoke, move the speed adjust-
ment lever to the STOP position and pull the starting
cable out slowly 5 times. Repeat the starting proce-
dure.
