The fuel valve opens and closes the passage
between the fuel tank and the carburetor. The
fuel valve lever must be in the ON position

in use, leave the fuel valve lever in the OFF
position to prevent carburetor flooding and to
reduce the possibility of fuel leakage.
Throttle Control
The throttle lever controls engine speed.
Moving the throttle lever makes the engine
run faster or slower.
Engine Switch
The engine switch enables and disables the
ignition system. The engine switch must be in
the ON position for the engine to run. Turning

Choke Lever
The choke lever opens and closes the choke
valve in the carburetor. The closed position
enriches the fuel mixture for starting a cold
engine. The open position provides the correct
fuel mixture for operation after starting, and
for restarting a warm engine. Some engine
applications use a remotely-mounted choke
control rather than the engine-mounted choke
lever.
Recoil Starter Grip
Pulling the starter grip operates the recoil
starter to crank the engine.
