OPEN

position (B, Fig.11). 

6)  Pull the starter cord to start the engine. Once 

the machine is started, warm up the machine

cause the rope to break.

-  Do not let starter rope snap back. Hold the 

starter handle (13, Fig.1) and let the rope 
rewind slowly.

WARNING: Once the engine is warmed 

up do not use the choke to start up again.

WARNING: Use the semi-acceleration 

device only in the phase of starting the engine 
to cold.

BREAKING-IN THE ENGINE

The engine reaches the maximum power after 
5÷8 hours of activity.
During this period of breaking-in do not use the 
engine at wide open throttle without load, to avoid 
excessive functioning stress.

WARNING! - During the breaking-in 

period do not vary the carburetion to obtain a 
presumed power increment; the engine can be 
damaged.

NOTE:  It is normal for smoke to be emitted 
from a new engine during and after first use.
