Stopping The Engine; Using The Machine - EMAK Oleo-Mac BV 900 Manual De Instrucciones

CAUTION:
- Never wrap the starter cord around your
hand.
- When pulling the starter rope, do not use
the full extent of the rope as this can cause
the rope to break.
- Do not let starter rope snap back. Hold the
starter handle (4, Fig.1) and let the rope
rewind slowly.
BREAKING-IN THE ENGINE
The engine reaches the maximum power after
5÷8 hours of activity.
During this period of breaking-in do not use the
engine at wide open throttle without load, to
avoid excessive functioning stress.
WARNING! - During the breaking-in
period do not vary the carburetion to obtain a
presumed power increment; the engine can be
damaged.
NOTE: It is normal for smoke to be emitted
from a new engine during and after first use.

Set the throttle lever to idle position (1, Fig. 13)
and wait a few seconds to let the engine cool off.
Turn off the engine, pushing the ON/OFF switch
(2, Fig. 13).
