WARNING! The electric starter is equipped with a
grounded three-wire power cord and plug, and is
designed to operate on 120 volt AC household

three-prong receptacle at all times to avoid the
possibility of electric shock. Follow all instructions
carefully prior to operating the electric starter.
DO NOT use electric starter in rain.

Determine that your home's wiring is a three-wire
grounded system. Ask a licensed electrician if you are
unsure. If you have a grounded three-prong receptacle,
proceed as follows. If you do not have the proper house
wiring, DO NOT use the electric starter under any
conditions.

is warm, place choke in OFF position.
6. Push primer three to five (3-5) times, making sure to cover

only once. Always cover vent hole when pushing. Cool
weather may require priming to be repeated.

starts, immediately release starter button. Electric starter
is equipped with thermal overload protection; system will
temporarily shut-down to allow starter to cool if electric
starter becomes overloaded.

OFF position. If the engine falters, restart engine and run
with choke at half-choke position for a short period of time,
and then slowly rotate the choke into OFF position.
9. After engine is running, disconnect power cord from
electric starter. When disconnecting, always unplug the
end at the wall outlet before unplugging the opposite end
from the engine.
