N with the right hand, pull the starter
grip slowly until you feel it engage –
and then give it a brisk strong pull –

handlebar – do not pull the starter
rope out all the way – risk of
breakage! Do not let the starter grip

additional manual fuel pump, it may be
necessary to pull the starter rope several
times – to prime the fuel line.
