5.2 STARTING THE ENGINE (cold)
The engine must be started in the way described in the machine’s Instruction
Manual, always making sure that any device (if present) that could cause the
machine to advance or the engine to stop is disengaged.
a) Open the fuel shut off valve.
b) Move the throttle to “CHOKE”.
c) Turn the starter key as described in the machine’s instruction manual.
After a few seconds, slowly move the throttle from “CHOKE” to either “FAST” or
“SLOW”.
If the engine starts but does not keep running, repeat the above steps with
the throttle on “FAST”.
5.3 STARTING THE ENGINE (hot starting)
• Follow the whole cold-starting procedure with throttle control in “FAST” position.
5.4 USE OF THE ENGINE IN OPERATION
Maximum revs must be used to optimize the engine’s yield and performance, by
setting the throttle trigger to “FAST”.
Keep your hands away from the silencer and surrounding areas that
can become extremely hot. With the engine running, do not get loose-fitting
clothing (ties, scarves, etc.) or hair closer to the top part of the engine.
Do not operate on over 20° inclines to prevent malfunctioning of
the engine.
5.5 STOPPING THE ENGINE DURING MOWING
a) Move the throttle to “SLOW”.
b) Allow the engine to run at minimum speed for at least 15-20 seconds.
c) Stop the engine following the instructions contained in the machine’s Instructions
Manual.
