Remember that screwing in provides lean mixture, unscrewing gives rich mixture.
Prepare a 3% ratio mixture of fuel and synthetic two stroke oil.
Start the engine and warm it up on the ground.
Run it for no longer than 10 minutes, following this advice:
•Donotexceed4000rpm

Starting
Be careful when starting the engine!
Check the level of fuel in the tank.
Close the choke; see left picture of Figure 2.
For an easy start, when the engine is still cold, you need to press the inner membrane of the carburetor, but no longer than 2 seconds.
During this operation, you will see the fuel mixture owing into the carburetor.
Before pulling the rope handle, PUSH the decompressor valve (see Figure 3).
This reduces the strength you need to start the engine. It will automatically return to closed position when the engine starts.
