If the engine doesn't start, check the following: * Ensure the fuel valve is open. * Refill the fuel tank if it's empty. * Close the choke. * If the device was tilted and oil leaked into the air filter, replace the air filter, unscrew the spark plug, start several times with the fuel valve closed, dry the spark plug, and screw it back in. * If the engine was flooded from too many start attempts, unscrew the spark plug, start several times with the fuel valve closed, dry the spark plug, and screw it back in. * Make sure the spark plug connector is attached. * If the air filter is dirty, clean it. * If the spark plug is sooted, damaged, or has an incorrect electrode gap, clean it and check the gap; replace if necessary.
