4. Pull out / turn the choke knob fully. After
the engine starts, replace / return the
knob to the home position.
NOTE:
● It is not necessary to use the choke when
starting a warm engine.
● If the choke knob is left in the “” (start)
position while the engine is running, the en-
gine will run poorly or stall.
5. Pull the manual starter handle slowly until
you feel resistance. Then give a strong
pull straight out to crank and start the en-
gine. Repeat if necessary.
6. After the engine starts, slowly return the
manual starter handle to its original posi-
tion before releasing it.
7. Slowly return the throttle grip to the fully
closed position.
NOTE:
● When the engine is cold, it needs to be
warmed up. For further information, see
page 32.
● If the engine does not start on the first try,
repeat the procedure. If the engine fails to
start after 4 or 5 tries, open the throttle a
small amount (between 1/8 and 1/4) and try
again. Also if the engine is warm and fails to
start, open the throttle a same amount and
try to start the engine again. If the engine
still fails to start, see page 66.
