Choke Control
The choke control is found on top of the engine and is acti-
vated by rotating the knob counter clockwise. Activating
the choke control closes the choke plate on the carburetor
and aids in starting the engine.
Primer
Depressing the primer forces fuel directly into the engine’s
carburetor to aid in cold-weather starting.
Oil Fill
Engine oil level can be checked and oil added through the
oil fill.
Safety Key
The safety key must be pushed in place in order for the
engine to start. Pull the safety key out to prevent unauthor-
ized use of equipment.
Rocker Switch
The rocker switch is used to stop the engine. The switch
must be in the “ON” position in order to start the engine.
WARNING
Read, understand,
and follow all instruc-
tions and warnings
on the machine and
in this manual before

Use extreme care
when handling
gasoline. Gasoline is
extremely flammable
and the vapors are
explosive. Never fuel
the machine indoors
or while the engine
is hot or running.
Extinguish cigarettes,
