8. Operation

STARTING ENGINE
IMPORTANT
• Avoid operating the blower with the flexible tube
and swivel joint disconnected. That will reduce the
cooling air and the engine could be damaged by
overheating.
1. Push the primer bulb until fuel flows out in the clear
tube.
2. When the engine is cool, close the choke.
3. Set the ignition switch to the start position.
(1) Full Throttle
(2) About 1/3 Open
(3) Idling
(4) Ignition Switch
4. Set the throttle lever in 1/3 open position.
5. To start, hold the top of the blower firmly with your
left hand. Pull the starter knob slowly until you feel it
engage and then give it a vigorous strong pull.
IMPORTANT
• Avoid pulling the starter rope out to its full extent
and allowing the starter rope to snap back. This will
prevent premature damage to the starter.
• Do not let a person stand near the blower or the ex-
haust port.
6.Once the engine is running, gradually open the
choke if it was set closed, and let the engine run at
idle speed for a minute to warm it up.
