Starting
Standard versions
N with the right hand, pull the starter
grip slowly until you feel it engage –
and then give it a brisk strong pull –
simultaneously press down on the
handlebar – do not pull the starter
rope out all the way – risk of
breakage! Do not let the starter grip
snap back – guide it vertically back
into the housing so that the starter
rope can rewind properly
With a new engine or after a long period
of disuse, with machines without an
additional manual fuel pump, it may be
necessary to pull the starter rope several
times – to prime the fuel line.
