position provides the correct fuel
mixture for normal operation after
starting, and for restarting a warm
engine.

sponding the compression point. Rewind the rope a little from
that point and pull out sharply.

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.
CAUTION - Using the Recoil Starter Rope
