ENGINE STOP SWITCH
The engine stop switch "1" is located on the left

rapidly and released slowly for smooth starts.
SHIFT PEDAL

be shifted by using the shift pedal "1" on the left
side of the engine.
KICKSTARTER CRANK
Rotate the kickstarter crank "1" away from the
engine. Push the starter down lightly with your
foot until the gears engage, then kick smoothly
and forcefully to start the engine. This model
has a primary kickstarter crank so the engine
can be started in any gear if the clutch is disen-
gaged. In normal practices, however, shift to
neutral before starting.

dlebar; it accelerates or decelerates the en-
