STARTING AND BREAK-IN

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
NOTE:
This model is equipped with an ignition circuit
cut-off system. The engine can be started
under the following conditions.
When the transmission is in neutral.
When the clutch is disengaged with the
transmission in any position. However, it is
recommended to shift into neutral before
starting the engine.
1. Shift the transmission into neutral.
2. Turn the fuel cock to “ON” and full open
the starter knob (CHOKE).
3. Turn the main switch to “ON”.
4. With the throttle completely closed start
the engine by pushing the start switch or
by kicking the kickstarter crank forcefully
with firm stroke.
5. Run the engine at idle or slightly higher
until it warms up: this usually takes about
one or two minutes.
6. The engine is warmed up when it
responds normally to the throttle with the
starter knob (CHOKE) turned off.
