Fuel-Shutoff Valve
The fuel-shutoff valve is the lower lever located on the rear,
left side of the engine below the choke. The fuel-shutoff valve
shuts off the flow of fuel when the machine will not be used
for a few days, when parking inside a building, and during
transport to and from the job site (Figure 5).
Move the lever to the left to shut off the fuel. Move the lever
to the right to turn on the fuel.
Throttle Control
The throttle control is located on the rear, right side of the
engine and below the fuel tank (Figure 5).
The throttle is used to control engine speed. Moving the
throttle control to the left will increase engine speed, and
moving it right will decrease engine speed.
Engine On/Off Switch
Located on the right hand side of the engine (Figure 5).
Rotate the switch clockwise to the On position before starting
the engine. Rotate the switch counterclockwise to the Off
position to stop the engine.
Wheel-clutch Levers
The wheel-clutch levers are located below the right and left
handles.
