Basic Operation & Riding

Starting & Stopping the Engine
The recoil starter is used to start the engine when the battery is low.
To operate the recoil starter:
1.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and engine stop switch to RUN.
2.
Check that the transmission is in neutral.
3.
Grasp the starter grip (1) firmly, then pull it out slowly
approximately 4 in (100 mm).
4.
Pull the grip up briskly and fully.
5.
After the engine starts, allow the starter grip to return slowly.
Pull the recoil starter grip straight out so that the cord does not
touch the side cover. Repeated contact with the side cover can
damage the starter cord.
If the starter grip does not return smoothly (because of dirt in the
assembly), see your dealer.
The engine cannot be started if the battery is disconnected, low or
dead.
If the engine cannot be started with the battery connected, charge
the battery (page 146).
When the engine cannot be started even if the battery is charged,
see your dealer.
