counterclockwise around the

position as the engine warms up.
During the warm-up period, check

cooling system indicator (p. ).
If necessary, rewind the rope and
pull again. If the engine does not
start after several attempts, refer to

Leave the flywheel cover off, but
install the engine cover (p.

and lock it in place by latching the
engine cover latch.
