  If your Makita Lawn and Garden Equipment engine stops shortly after starting or the engine speed doesn't increase, consider these potential causes: * **Warm-up:** Ensure you perform the warm-up operation adequately. * **Choke Lever:** Verify the choke lever is set to “OPEN” once the engine is warmed up. * **Fuel Filter:** A clogged fuel filter can cause this issue; clean it. * **Air Cleaner:** Check the air cleaner for contamination or clogging, and clean it if necessary.

  If the auger bit on your Makita Lawn and Garden Equipment continues to rotate, it could be due to high idling rotation. Adjust the idle speed to resolve this. Another potential cause is a throttle control wire problem, in that case ask service center to replace it.
