Choke
To start a cold engine, close the carburetor choke by
moving the choke control (Fig. 18) forward to the Closed
position. After the engine starts, regulate the choke to keep
the engine running smoothly. As soon as possible, open the
choke by pulling it rearward to the Open position. A warm
engine requires little or no choking.

Insert the key into the switch (Fig. 18) and turn it clockwise
as far as possible to the Start position to start the engine.
Release the key as soon as the engine starts; the key will
move to the On position. Turn the key counterclockwise to
the Off position to stop the engine.
