Electric start

When using the electric starter, preliminary fuel filling is not necessary. The starter is capable of turning the engine fast enough to easily draw in enough fuel on its own. Therefore, never block the exhaust outlet or carburettor intake with your hand, as this could cause excessive fuel to be drawn in, resulting in flooding. Blocking the engine while it is being turned by the electric starter can lead to a broken connecting rod or twisted crankshaft. Before using the electric starter, always turn the engine at least once by hand to make sure it is not blocked due to flooding.
