Owner's Manual
Decompression lever (electric starter type only)
The electric starter type engine is equipped with a manual decompression
device that makes it easier to pull-start the engine. When the lever is mov-
ed up, it partially opens the exhaust valve and releases some compression
from the cylinder. When the engine starts, the lever automatically returns
to the closed position.
I-NOTICE 1 St
opping
the engine with the decompression lever will damage
