STARTING AND BREAK-IN
CAUTION:
Before starting the machine, perform the
checks in the pre-operation check list.
WARNING
Never start or run the engine in a closed
area. The exhaust fumes are poisonous;
they can cause loss of consciousness and
death in a very short time. Always operate
the machine in a well-ventilated area.

STARTING A COLD ENGINE

1. Shift the transmission into neutral.
2. Turn the fuel cock to "ON" and full open the
starter knob (CHOKE).
3. With the throttle completely closed start the
engine by kicking the kickstarter crank
forcefully with firm stroke.
4. Run the engine at idle or slightly higher
until it warms up: this usually takes about
one or two minutes.
5. The engine is warmed up when it responds
normally to the throttle with the starter knob
(CHOKE) turned off.
CAUTION:
Do not warm up the engine for extended
periods.

STARTING A WARM ENGINE

Do not operate the starter knob (CHOKE).
Open the throttle slightly and start the engine
by kicking the kickstarter crank forcefully with
firm stroke.
CAUTION:
Observe the following break-in procedures
during initial operation to ensure optimum
performance and avoid engine damage.
