- Make sure the equipment attached to the engine is in neutral or disengaged.
- Move the throttle control (if equipped) to the FAST position.
- Grasp the starter rope handle firmly and pull it slowly until resistance is felt, then pull rapidly with a full arm stroke. Allow the rope to rewind slowly. Repeat if necessary.

3. Spark Plug Maintenance
Inspect the spark plug annually or every 100 operating hours. Clean or replace if electrodes are fouled, burned, or cracked. Ensure the gap is set correctly according to specifications.
4. Fuel System Maintenance
Inspect fuel lines and connections for cracks or leaks. For seasonal storage, add a fuel stabilizer to the gasoline or drain the fuel system completely to prevent fuel degradation issues.
5. Generel rengøring
Keep the engine clean, especially the cooling fins and air intake areas, to prevent overheating. Use a brush or compressed air to remove debris.
