Choke Control

The choke control is found on the rear of the engine and is
activated by rotating the knob counter-clockwise. Activating
the choke control closes the choke plate on the carburetor
and aids in starting the engine.
Key
The key is a safety device. It must be fully inserted in order
for the engine to start. Remove the key when the snow
thrower is not in use.
NOTE: Do not turn the key in an attempt to start the engine.
Doing so may cause it to break.
