Cranking
N Place the unit securely on the
ground and make sure that
bystanders are well clear of the
nozzle outlet.
N Make sure you have a firm footing:
Hold the unit with your left hand on
the housing and put one foot against
the base plate to prevent it slipping.
N Pull the starter grip slowly with your
right hand until you feel it engage
and then give it a brisk strong pull.
Do not pull out the starter rope to full
length – it might otherwise break.
N Do not let the starter grip snap back.
Guide it slowly back into the housing
so that the starter rope can rewind
properly.
N Crank the engine until it begins to
fire. After no more than three
attempts, turn the choke knob to n.
When engine begins to fire
If the engine is cold:
N Turn the choke knob to n and
continue cranking until the engine
runs.
If the engine is warm:
N continue cranking until the engine
runs.
As soon as the engine runs
Return engine to idle speed:
N Operate the throttle trigger (2) – the
choke knob automatically moves to
the run position (F)
or
N Turn the choke knob to the normal
run position (F).
At very low outside temperatures
N Open throttle slightly – warm up the
engine for a short period.
Stopping the Engine
N Move the setting lever to 0 – the
engine stops – the setting lever
springs back to the on position.
If the engine does not start
Choke knob
If you did not turn the choke knob to n
quickly enough after the engine began to
fire, the combustion chamber is flooded.
