Starting and warming up a
cold engine

2. Shift the transmission into the
neutral position.
3. Turn the starter (choke) on and
completely close the throttle. (See
page 4-7.)
4. Start the engine by pushing the
kickstarter lever down.
5. When the engine is warm, turn the
starter (choke) off.
The engine is warm when it responds
quickly to the throttle with the starter
(choke) turned off.

Starting a warm engine
Follow the same procedure as for
starting a cold engine with the excep-
tion that the starter (choke) is not re-
quired when the engine is warm.
Instead, start the engine with the throt-
tle slightly open.
If the engine does not start after sever-
al kicks, try again with the throttle 1/4
to 1/2 open.
