ON/STOP SWITCH

The On/Stop switch is located on the

control handle and is used to stop the

engine. Push the switch to the stop

position to stop the unit.

THROTTLE LOCKOUT

The Throttle Lockout prevents the

throttle trigger from being depressed.

PRIMER BULB

The primer bulb removes air from the

fuel lines and fills them with fuel. This

allows you to start the engine with few-

er pulls on the starter rope. Activate

the primer bulb by pressing it and al-

lowing it to return to its original form.

CHOKE

The choke helps to supply fuel to the

carburetor during starting. This allows

you to start a cold engine. Activate the

choke by moving the choke lever to

the Full position. After the engine has

started, move the choke to the Off

position.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel

information in the safety rules before

you begin. If you do not understand

the safety rules, do not attempt to fuel

your unit. Call 1-800-235-5878.

FUELING ENGINE

This engine is certified to operate on

unleaded gasoline. Before operation,

gasoline must be mixed with a good

quality 2-cycle air-cooled engine oil.

We recommend Craftsman brand oil.

Mix gasoline and oil at a ratio of 40:1

(A 40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 3.2

ounces of oil with 1 gallon of unleaded

gasoline). DO NOT USE automotive oil

or boat oil. These oils will cause

engine damage. When mixing fuel,

follow instructions printed on container.

IMPORTANT

Experience indicates that alcohol

blended fuels (called gasohol or using

ethanol or methanol) can attract mois-

ture which leads to separation and

formation of acids during storage.

Acidic gas can damage the fuel sys-

tem of an engine while in storage.

To avoid engine problems, empty the

fuel system before storage for 30 days

or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the

engine and let it run until the fuel lines

and carburetor are empty. Use fresh

fuel next season.

Never use engine or carburetor clean-

er products in the fuel tank or perma-

nent damage may occur.

See the STORAGE section for addi-

tional information.
