- Move the choke lever to the 'COLD START' position.
- Premere più volte la pompetta di adescamento finché il carburante non è visibile nel condotto di ritorno.
- Pull the starter rope firmly and smoothly until the engine attempts to start (usually 1-2 pulls).
- Once the engine 'coughs' or attempts to start, move the choke lever to the 'RUN' position.
- Tirare nuovamente la corda di avviamento finché il motore non si avvia e gira regolarmente.
- Lasciare riscaldare il motore per qualche istante prima di accelerare.
Usando il Trimmer
- Tenere saldamente il tagliabordi con entrambe le mani, mantenendo una posizione equilibrata.
- Per ottenere un taglio uniforme, tenere la testina del tagliabordi parallela al terreno.
