STARTUP
CAUTION
DO NOT attempt to run the compactor
until the Safety and Initial Start-up
sections have been read and understood.
CAUTION
DO NOT pull the starter rope all the way to the end
DO NOT release the starter rope after pulling. Allow it
to rewind as soon as possible.
The CLOSED position of the choke lever enriches the
fuel mixture for starting a COLD engine. The OPEN
position provides the correct fuel mixture for normal
operation after starting, and for restarting a warm engine.
