OPERATION Starting the Engine Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide and can cause loss of consciousness resulting in severe injury or death. Never run an engine in an enclosed area. 1. Position the vehicle on a level surface. 2. Place the transmission in neutral. 3. Lock the parking brake. Tip: The starter interlock will prevent the engine from starting if the transmission is in gear and the brake is not engaged. 4. Turn the fuel valve on. 5. Sit on the vehicle. Tip: Do not use the choke if starting a warm engine. Excessive use of the choke can cause the spark plug to become wet fouled. 6. If the engine is cold, pull the choke knob out until it stops. If the knob doesn't stay where positioned, increase the tension by rotating the tension adjusting nut clockwise. Tip: The variable choke is fully on when the knob is pulled completely out. The choke is off when the knob is pushed completely in. The choke can be adjusted gradually, depending on how much choke is needed for starting. Be sure the choke is off during operation, as excess fuel washing into the engine oil will increase wear on engine components. Choke Knob Adjusting Nut 7. Pull the engine stop switch up to RUN. 32

OPERATION
Starting the Engine
Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide and can cause loss of
consciousness resulting in severe injury or death. Never run an engine in an
enclosed area.
1.
Position the vehicle on a level surface.
2.
Place the transmission in neutral.
3.
Lock the parking brake.
Tip:
The starter interlock will prevent the engine from starting if the transmission
is in gear and the brake is not engaged.
4.
Turn the fuel valve on.
5.
Sit on the vehicle.
Tip:
Do not use the choke if starting a warm engine. Excessive use of the choke
can cause the spark plug to become wet fouled.
6.
If the engine is cold, pull the
choke knob out until it stops.
If the knob doesn't stay where
positioned, increase the ten-
sion by rotating the tension
adjusting nut clockwise.
Tip:
The variable choke is fully on
when the knob is pulled com-
pletely out. The choke is off when
the knob is pushed completely in.
The choke can be adjusted grad-
ually, depending on how much
choke is needed for starting. Be
sure the choke is off during opera-
tion, as excess fuel washing into
the engine oil will increase wear
on engine components.
7.
Pull the engine stop switch up to RUN.
