10. To start the machine, locate the engine switch on the side of the
engine (if applicable), and switch it to the ON position. Units with
a Honda GC engine have the power switch built into the throttle
lever. Check to ensure fuel valve is in the ON position and if start-
ing cold, apply the choke. Reference the component diagrams for
the location of these parts.
11. Brace the unit with your foot and ensure that you are completely
balanced on a flat surface. Pull recoil cord slowly until resistance is
felt and then pull rapidly to avoid kickback. DO NOT place hand on
engine muffler for balance as this will result in a severe burn. Once
the engine is running, disengage the choke lever.
