STARTING AND STOPPING
CAUTION! Do not pull the starter cord all the way out and do
not let go of the starter handle when the cord is fully extended.
This can damage the machine.
CAUTION! Do not put any part of your body in marked area.
Contact can result in burns to the skin, or electrical shock if
the spark plug cap has been damaged. Always use gloves.
Do not use a machine with damaged spark plug cap.
For throttle handles with a start throttle
lock:
Set the throttle to the start position by first pressing the throttle
lockout and the throttle trigger, then pressing the start throttle
button (A). Then release the throttle lockout and the throttle
trigger, followed by the start throttle button. The throttle
function is now activated. To return the engine to idle, press
the throttle lockout and throttle trigger again.
PART THROTTLE FUNCTION (RX, RDX):
It is possible to set the engine for part throttle operation using
the dial on the side of the throttle handle. Turn the dial up to
decrease the part throttle rpm. Turn the dial down to increase
the part throttle rpm. When you have set the part throttle rpm
you will feel increased resistance when you press the throttle
trigger. This increased resistance makes it easier to maintain
a constant part throttle setting. To obtain full throttle, press the
throttle trigger a little harder so that it goes past the part
throttle setting. As soon as you release the throttle trigger the
engine will return to idle. The part throttle function does not
lock the engine at a given rpm, it is simply a brake that makes
it easier to maintain the engine at a given rpm.
Stopping
Stop the engine by switching off the ignition.
CAUTION! The stop switch automatically returns to the start
position. In order to prevent unintentional starting, the spark
plug cap must be removed from the spark plug when
assembling, checking and/or performing maintenance.
