Starting the Engine
Standard Model
Pull the recoil handle slowly until you feel resistance,
then pull it sharply. Allow the rope to return to the
engine slowly.
Note: If the machine does not start after several
attempts, contact an Authorized Service Dealer.
Electric-start Model
You can start the engine on an electric-start model by
using either the ignition key or the recoil-start handle.
• Ignition Key: Turn and hold the ignition key to the
Start position (Figure 17); when the engine starts,
release the key.
Important: Do not attempt to start the engine
with the blade-control bar engaged; otherwise,
you may blow the fuse.
Note: Do not hold the ignition key in the Start
position for longer than 5 seconds to prevent
burning out the starter motor.

• Recoil-start Handle:
1. Turn the ignition key to the Run position
(Figure 17).
2. Pull the recoil handle slowly to the rear until you
feel resistance, then pull sharply. Allow the rope
to return to the engine slowly.
Using the Self-propel Drive
To operate the self-propel drive, simply walk with your
hands gripping the upper handle and your elbows at
your sides, and the machine will automatically keep pace
with you (Figure 18).
Note: You can self-propel the machine with the blades
engaged or disengaged.
Note: Use the traction-assist handle in situations
when you need more control than you have with the
self-propel drive alone.
