10.
Warm up the engine for 30-60 seconds and start work.
If the engine does not start, it is possible that you missed the first flash and the
spark plug was flooded with fuel. In this case, you must perform the following
steps:
•
Set the ignition switch to OFF/0/Stop.
•
Remove the cap from the spark plug by pulling it towards you along the
axis of the spark plug. Remove and dry the spark plug.
•
While pressing the gas trigger, pull the starter handle a few times to
ventilate the engine and remove excess fuel from it. Reinstall the spark
plug.
•
Without closing the air damper, repeat the start-up procedure.
Warm start
When starting a warmed-up engine, as a rule, no fuel pumping is required. The start-up is
carried out as follows:
1.
Turn on the ignition using the switch located on the control handle (Fig. 10).
2.
Pressing the safety lever, push the throttle lever and lock it in the depressed state
with the latch (Fig. 10).
3.
Gently pull the starter handle until it snaps into the mechanism and vigorously pull
the cord another 50-60cm. To avoid damaging the starter case, do not throw the
starter handle; gently return it to its original position. Repeat these steps 2-3 times,
the engine should start.
4.
Immediately after starting the engine, lightly press the throttle control lever and
release it. The engine should go to idle mode.
Engine stop
To stop the engine, release the gas trigger, put the engine at idle and let it run for 15-20
seconds. Then turn the ignition switch to the stop position.
WARNING:
Idle mode is necessary to reduce the temperature inside
the engine. Immediately stopping the engine can lead to a sharp rise in
the temperature inside the engine and its failure.
