rather than the engine-mounted choke lever shown on the
previous page. Refer to the instructions provided by the
equipment manufacturer.
3. Move the throttle lever away from the MIN. position, about 1/3
of the way toward the MAX. position.

Do not allow the starter grip to snap back against the engine.
Return it gently to prevent damage to the starter.
ELECTRIC STARTER (applicable types):
Turn the key to the START position,
and hold it there until the engine
starts.
If the engine fails to start within 5
seconds, release the key, and wait at
least 10 seconds before operating the
starter again.
Using the electric starter for more
than 5 seconds at a time will overheat
the starter motor and can damage it.
When the engine starts, release the
key, allowing it to return to the ON
position.
6. If the choke lever or choke rod (applicable types) was moved to
the CLOSED position to start the engine, gradually move it to
the OPEN position as the engine warms up.
