The four positions of the
Master Control lever
To start the engine, move the lever to
the “cold start” position l (1) -
- do not use force.
If the Master Control lever is
in the “run” position # (3):
Press down the throttle
trigger interlock and move
the Master Control downward.
“Cold Start” position:
Choke shutter is closed -
throttle trigger is in starting-throttle
position.
This position is used to start a cold
engine.
As soon as engine begins to fire,
move the Master Control lever to
“Warm Start” position n (2):
Choke shutter is open -
throttle trigger is in starting-throttle
position.
If you leave the Master Control lever
in the “cold start” position,
the combustion chamber will flood
and stall the engine.
The Master Control lever must be in
“warm start” position to start a
warm engine. Also select this
position if the engine has been
running but is still cold.
The Master Control lever is locked
and can only be moved to the “run”
position (3) after squeezing the
throttle trigger.
- do not use force -
In the “warm start” position,
continue cranking after engine
begins to fire.
As soon as the engine runs,
immediately blip the throttle trigger
so that the Master Control lever
moves to the “run” position (3).
To shut down the engine:
Move the Master Control lever
upward to “STOP” position
$ b (4):
The stop contact should engage
the contact spring -
this cuts off the ignition system.
Only machines with easy start
system:
Press in the button to open the
decompression valve.
The valve closes automatically as
soon as the engine begins to fire.
For this reason the button should
be pressed in before each starting
attempt.
