- Grasp the recoil starter handle firmly and pull slowly until resistance is felt, then pull quickly and smoothly to start the engine.
- Varikliui užsivedus, palaipsniui perjunkite droselio svirtį į „RUN“ padėtį, kol variklis įšils.
2. Sustabdymo procedūra
- Droselio svirtį perkelkite į padėtį „LĖTAS“ arba „TUŠČIOJI EIGA“.
- Pasukite variklio jungiklį į padėtį „OFF“.

Priežiūra
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and performance of your engine. Always perform maintenance with the engine off and cool, and disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting.
- Alyvos keitimas: Variklio alyvą keiskite po pirmųjų 5 darbo valandų, vėliau kas 50 valandas arba kasmet, atsižvelgiant į tai, kas įvyksta anksčiau.
- Oro filtras: Oro filtrą tikrinkite ir valykite kas 25 darbo valandų arba dažniau, jei aplinka dulkėta. Jei filtras pažeistas, pakeiskite.
- Uždegimo žvakė: Inspect the spark plug every 100 hours. Clean or replace as needed and ensure proper gap.
- Kuro sistema: Drain the fuel tank and carburetor if storing the engine for more than 30 days. Use a fuel stabilizer if draining is not possible.
- Bendras valymas: Keep the engine clean from dirt and debris, especially around cooling fins and air intake areas.
