3.1 Starting Engine, continued;
figure 3a
Review the Engine Operating Manual supplied with your leaf vacuum for specific start-
up, maintenance and operating instructions. It is especially important to review break-in
service procedures for brand new units.
Starting Procedure:
1. Perform all the pre-starting, pre-operating checks outlined in the EOM and in this
manual.
2. Make sure the PTO is disengaged as shown in
figure 3a
3. IMPORTANT: Do not operate the starter for more than 30 seconds at a time.
To do so may overheat the starter. If the engine does not start the first time,
wait at least 2 minutes before trying again. If the engine fails to start after 4 at-
tempts, see the trouble shooting section of the EOM and this manual.
4. Turn the ignition switch all the way to the right, when the engine starts release the
ignition switch. It should spring back to the ON position.
5. IMPORTANT: If the ignition switch is released before the engine starts, wait
until the starter and the engine stop turning before trying again. This will pre-
vent possible damage to the starter and/or flywheel.
6. Check all gauges for normal engine opreration. If operation is not normal, stop the
engine and determine the cause.
7. IMPORTANT: To assure proper lubrication, operate the engine at or below
1200 rpm with no load for 1 -2 minutes. Extend this period 2 - 4 minutes when
operating at temperatures below freezing.
