WARNING:
If the engine does not stop when switch is set to the stop position, release
the throttle. Allow engine to idle. Put the tiller/cultivator down, and pull the choke button out
to cold start (closed) position. Check and return ignition switch to ON position before starting
the engine again
.
What to do Just in Case
:
If you follow the normal starting procedure, you should have no problem starting your
Tiller/Cultivator. But, just in case you do have problems, here’s what to do.
Make sure the run/stop switch is on “run” If the switch was on “stop” when you pulled the
cord, you may have flooded the engine.
•
First, examine the spark plug. Use a 19 mm spark plug wrench.
•
Remove the cap over the spark plug
IMPORTANT NOTE
:
To avoid possible damage to the threads, do not try to remove the plug from a hot aluminum
cylinder head.
•
Unscrew the spark plug.
Starting a Flooded Engine:
If the end of the spark plug is wet,
the engine may be flooded. Make sure the switch is in
the stop position, disconnect spark plug wire and remove the plug. Use a paper towel or a
clean rag to dry the spark plug, then, with the spark plug out of the engine, pull the starter
cord several times. Shake the fuel out of the inside of the plug and air dry. Next, replace the
spark plug. Use the wrench to tighten it and replace the cap. Next, put the switch in the start
position and pull the choke button out. Pull the starter cord three or four times until the
engine coughs or sputters. Open the choke (push the choke button in) and pull the cord a
few times. The engine should start and run.
If the end of the spark plug is dry
, check to see if the fuel line is blocked. The fuel line
runs from the fuel tank to the carburetor. Pull it off at the carburetor end. Fuel should drip
slowly from the line. Wipe off any excess or spilled fuel. If fuel does not drip from the line,
check the line for any bends or pinches. Kinks in the line restrict the flow of fuel to the engine.
Just straighten out the line. Reconnect. Then follow the normal starting procedure. If fuel
drips too freely, the line may be disconnected from the fuel filter. You’ll find the fuel filter
inside the fuel tank. Just re-attach the line to the filter, and put the filter back in the tank.
Then follow the normal starting procedure.
WARNING:
Make sure the start/stop switch is in the stop position.
Keep plug wire away from the engine to avoid unintentional spark.
Another Way to Start your Tiller/Cultivator:
If you follow the steps above and your engine still won’t start, try this:
1. Push the switch to “start.”
2. Move the choke lever to open the choke.
3. Press the plastic bubble a few times.
4. Give the starter cord a few short, quick pulls. The engine should start and run.
5. If the engine does not start, then move the choke lever to close the choke. Pull
the starter cord four to five times. The engine should sputter or cough.
6. After the engine sputters, push the choke button in. Then pull the starter cord.
The engine should start and run.
7. If the engine still does not start, repeat
steps 2 through 6.
