flowing in the transparent return tube.
IMPORTANT!
The primer system only pushes fuel
through the carburetor. Repeatedly
pressing the primer bulb will not flood the
engine with fuel.

5. While holding the outer tube firmly
with left hand. Use your other hand to
slowly pull the recoil starter handle until
resistance is felt, then pull quickly to
start the engine.
CAUTION!
Do not pull the recoil starter to the end
of the rope travel. Pulling the recoil
starter to the end of the rope travel
can damage the starter.
WARNING!
The cutting attachment may
rotate when the engine is started!
6. When the engine starts, slowly move the
choke lever to the "OPEN" position. See
Figure 1. (If the engine stops after the
initial start, close the choke and restart.)
Closed

IMPORTANT!!
Make sure the
cutting attatchment
is clear of
obstructions!
Open
WARNING! Never start the en-
gine from the operating position.
7. Operating the throttle will automatically
disengage the fast idle setting.
IMPORTANT!
If the engine fails to start after several at-
tempts with the choke in the closed posi-
tion, the engine may be flooded with fuel.
If flooding is suspected, move the choke
lever to the open position and repeatedly
pull the recoil starter to remove excess
fuel and start the engine. If the engine still
fails to start, refer to the troubleshooting
section of this manual.
When the Engine Starts...
 After the engine starts, allow the engine
to warm up at idle  or  minutes before
operating the unit.
 Advancing the throttle makes the cut-
ting attachment turn faster; releasing
the throttle permits the attachment to
stop turning. If the cutting attachment
continues to rotate when the engine
returns to idle, carburetor idle speed
should be adjusted (see "Adjusting
Engine Idle" below).
